The Armada AR6 Alpine Ski returns, delivering a solid, stable ride so you can take to the air, stomp landings, and drop massive tricks all over the mountain. The AR6 features Armada's AR Core 1 combined with a carbon KEVLAR® tail stringer to give it more pop than a police spike strip, and its bombproof construction puts the beat-down on rails instead of the other way around. This sure-footed, extremely versatile ski dominates the frontside, from the park and pipe to anything else worth jibbing.

  • ABS construction next to the core and over the edges for core protection, edge hold, and stability
  • AR Core 1 features wood laminate stringers for low swing weight and strength
  • S7 Base is Armadas toughest base has a gliding additive for increased speed with minimal manicuring
  • 2.5 Impact Edge for park abuse

Bottom Line: There’s a reason why the biggest names in freestyle ride Armada.

Absolutely insane. They are one of the best skis ever made for park. However, it is also great for all mtn. The stiff tail finishes every turn super well. The base also only needs one wax a seaon because it is so durable

Around 4080 or so grams, If AT is on your mind, you could do so. They're light enough to ascend and send it.

I would not center mount them unless you are doing only rails jumps and a ton of switch. I have mine 2.5 cm back and it really doesn't sacrifice any park performance but it gives you much better all mtn. Bottom line is if you do any all mtn don't mount center.

It might be a little stiff for effortless butters, but I think you could probably muscle some butters, because they really aren't THAT stiff compared to a lot of other park skis. If you want a really buttery ski, the line invader is as soft as it gets.
