Armada ARV 88 2024 Skis

Competition-proven park performance

The narrowest and stiffest ski in the ARV range, the ARV 88 combines a poplar core with w3Dgewall construction for maximum edge hold and pop in the toughest conditions, from rutted inruns to icy pipe wall. With more camber and a shorter radius underfoot, the ARV 88 offers a more traditional feel compared to other ARVs, while an extended radius in the tip and tail prevents any snagging on take-off and landing.

Riding style
A high-performance freestyle ski for park and pipe. Ideal for rails, gaps and big kickers. If you are looking for the ultimate park and pipe ski, the ARV 88 should more than fulfil all your wishes.

Shape
This ski comes with a Directional Twin Shape, the nose is a few millimetres wider than the tail, with a central binding position. Thus the ski offers you the same skiing characteristics forward and switch. However, thanks to the slightly wider nose you get a little more uplift in fresh snow.

Profile
This ski comes with a classic camber under the binding and an even rocker in nose and tail. This profile is perfect for any terrain. Precision and pop for park and slope, good uplift in soft snow. The Rocker in the nose and tail also creates an additional, loose, tilt-free riding experience.

Construction
Stability, strength and lightness are the top priorities for the poplar wood core. For those looking for predictability and smoothness, the poplar core delivers in all snow conditions. The w3Dgewall is a 3D-moulded, injected sidewall that is angled where it connects to the wood core. This provides a stronger, more even connection between the sidewall and the core. The result is a ski that can withstand more stress and at the same time offers better edge grip with less weight.

Freeskis are usually delivered ready-to-ride with a waxed base and sharpened edges. However, this so-called factory-tuning is not very durable and your new skis should be properly waxed after a few days and maintained on a regular basis.
