Engage boost mode with the Armada ARV 88—the narrowest and stiffest ski in the ARV Series. Fueled by a Poplar Core and w3Dgewall construction, it delivers maximum edge hold and pop even in the gnarliest conditions, from rutted-out inruns to icy pipe walls. With more camber and a shorter turn radius underfoot, the ARV 88 boasts a traditional turn shape and feel compared to its ARV counterparts. Meanwhile, an elongated turn radius in the tip and tail eliminates any hooky behavior on takeoffs and landings. Backed by competition-proven park performance and Armada’s most robust construction to date, the ARV 88 is primed to endure a beating and ready to send it.

Features:


Sidecut: 118 - 88 - 112
Turn Radius: 15.5m


AR Freestyle Rocker: Rocker in the tip and tail is combined with positive camber underfoot, allowing for predictable, maneuverable and hook-free performance in variable snow while maintaining solid edge hold in firmer conditions.


Ash Binding Insert: Ash binding inserts provide maximum strength and binding retention with a more sustainable construction than binding inserts made from other materials.


2.5 Impact Edge: Oversized and specially heat-treated, this edge is built to resist impact damage in the most demanding situations.


S7 Base: Durable and low maintenance, with a speed additive for quickness.


W3DGEWALL: The w3Dgewall is a radical reimagining of ski design. Our engineers went to work on a unique concept to create the most durable, highest performance construction we’ve ever built. The w3Dgewall is a 3D molded, injected sidewall that’s angled where it joins the wood core, creating a mechanical bond in the mold during ski construction for a stronger, more uniform connection between the sidewall and core. With more material in critical areas for added durability and a three-dimensional taper in the tip and tail, the w3Dgewall creates a ski that will stand up to more abuse while providing enhanced edge grip at reduced weight.


Poplar Core: Stability, power and ease are paramount in this 100% Poplar wood core. For those looking for predictability and smoothness the Poplar core delivers in all snow conditions.
