Armada AR7 Skis 2011: The legendary AR6 was the perfect everyday ski for the all-mountain park skier, and for years we didn’t think it could be improved. Then Armada widened it a bit throughout and reconstructed it with the AR50 sidewall to lower its swing weight. The result was so impressive; it required a new name – The Armada AR7 Skis.
The Positive Camber engages the tip and tail of the ski, enhancing ease of entry and exit into and out of a turn, while maintaining solid edge hold.
AR50 is ABS sidewall meets cap construction – the best of both worlds. This engineering method combines the lightweight cap construction in the tip and tail with ABS sidewall underfoot, resulting in enhanced and significantly lower swing and overall weight. Improved for 10/11, the new S7 base features a gliding additive for increased speed and longevity. The toughest base, you can find the S7 on any ski that’s looking for rails, ledges, and boxes as much as snow. A blend of Carbon/Kevlar stringers run along the tail of the skis with CK stringer to help stabilize it. This creates a better landing platform, especially when your weight is further back than intended. It also increases snap and adds pop to ollies
The 2.5 impact edge has an oversized height and width and the steel is heat-treated to a proprietary hardness which helps resist breaking and tearing out from rails, ledges and any other abuse it might meet.
Excelling in the park and transferring to the whole mountain, the triple zone core (three high density wood stringers sitting along ultra light wood) gives you a powerful, durable core with explosive energy return. Triple zone cores resist compression without creating unnecessary weight. Bi-axial fiberglass runs in an “x” pattern down the ski to control lateral flex. Uni-directional fiberglass controls flex along the length of the ski. And tri-axial fiberglass, with fibers running in three directions, beefs up the center of the ski.
