I am really giving this a 4.5. I love this ski,
I used it at a ski testing event in northern
Michigan and they were sweet. They were fast and
floated real well with the rocker. I love the
race base and it's even better if you don't have
to tune them. This base is so soft and fragile
you should do a minor tune with like rub on wax
after every day of skiing. Then one hot wax after
every week if you don't want them to be messed up bad.

Oh my gosh, these are by far the sickest goggles ever. No nose pinch, more peripheal vision. Also it fits a lttle better than the crowbar with more helmets. The goggle basically looks like the crowbar but when you put it on and ride with it you will notice the difference in the overall quality, not to mention how insanely awesome you will look in it. So basically, you need this goggle. I guess the only bad thing about this goggle is that if you break it somehow which is like a .0001% chance then you will be sad pretty much forever.

While I will not ski on this ski until winter I do know a lot about it. First armada wanted to not change but fine tune and perfect their 2009 models. So the pipe cleaner along with most of the armada line has not been changed this year but they have been lightened in overall weight and they made the swing weight lighter to. When I saw this ski at a store it had an exactly even flex. The race base was also the same as last years which means you can get blistering speeds which in turn means more air off jumps. All in all, if you liked last years pipe cleaner or any armada park/pipe ski then you need to get this one.

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

i am 5'7 140 and i got the 169 and loved them. They are great for switch riding in pow and even though its not a super fat ski it still floats like one and it does great on the groomer. If you like stiffer skis then I wouldnt get this one it is really soft but still stable.

This pack is so cool. I bought it out west and used it to do a cliff several times and do some long hikes and it worked great. It holds the skis super well and the goggle holder is just the right fit. I just wish it was a little bigger because I ended up taking off a lot of layers as the day went on and I ran out of room. Overall it is a great pack.

These look awesome and perform great to. With me they didn't fog and they fit my helmet well. I have the red and black frame with a super tinted black lens. They look sick.

I used these goggles out west and they were amazing. You can see great all around unlike others where you can only see straight ahead. The only problem is that they don't fit with helmets well, especially mine (Giro G10).
