"Dope" - Review of Armada ARG Limited Series Alpine Ski

I skied these skis in some of the worst conditions possible to ski a double reverse ski (reverse camber and reverse side cut). On anything hardpacked these skis pretty much suck. I know that they have a little bit of tradition sidecut under the foot, but if you try to set a carve on something fairly steep it isn't going to work. Once you get used to the ski you learn that you just have to slide and drag the tail to turn on really hard snow. When I did find some left over powder from a few days before and some crud snow these skis did rip though, which makes me really want to give them a go in Powder. These are one ski that I would never give to a novice or intermediate skier and say "go ski", because although most skis are manageable for someone at those ability levels, this one is not. All I can say is be careful on groomed snow!
