Armada Alpha 2 Ski

Item #ARM0169 | 7 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Snappy and Versatile

By Backcountry.com Employee October 28, 2009

The Alpha 2 is a super fun park and surprisingly good all-mountain ski. It has a snappy flex and is really quick edge to edge all while being almost weightless underfoot. The early rise tips and tails are awesome in off-trail, chunky snow. I was really impressed by how well this ski handled all over the mountain. It was fun to bomb off cliffs and park jumps all day long. It's base requires less effort to maintain than the 1 version, which is a nice touch. Super easy to butter too, by the way.

I picked up the jj for my big all mountain ski and wanted something for the the park, pipe and grommers. Would this ski be too much alike or a good choice to just rip and throw around everywhere?
