Armada ARG Ski

By Ranked #817 - Big Mountain Freeride Skis December 6, 2011

I've got a pair of ARG so I know how much they are the best in tree lines with deep pow. However, I was wondering of how do they perform on big mountain: big open faces,bowls, steep couloirs at high speeds? Going to jackson hole in a couple of weeks from now make me rethink of their ablity to carve at high speeds in this type of terrain also knowing that it isn't the stiffest ski. Does anyone have experiences or recommandations to share about this?

THe ARG's do not perform their best at high speed. If the conditions are at all variable, like you find sometimes on the big mountain lines, than you would want something else. These are powder skis.
