Armada ARV 112 Black Edition Ski w/ Strive 13 Demo Bindings 2026 - 185cm

Imagine a ski that blurs the line between freestyle creativity and big mountain prowess, giving you the confidence to chase every whim across the landscape. Armada's ARV 112 Black Edition, in its refined 2026 iteration and commanding 185cm length, is precisely that. Crafted around a robust Poplar-Ash core, it delivers a lively yet remarkably damp ride, eating up variable conditions with quiet authority as you navigate fresh snow or chopped-up terrain. The AR Freestyle Rocker profile, combining generous tip and tail lift with solid camber underfoot, ensures effortless float through deep snow while providing tenacious edge grip when you carve back to the lift or air into a transition. Whether you're slashing untouched pow stashes, navigating complex tree lines with nimble precision, or launching off natural features, the 112mm waist is the sweet spot for a do-it-all freeride tool that truly excels when the flakes start falling. Its AR75 Sidewall construction marries the reduced swing weight of a cap in the extremities with the robust power transfer of a full sidewall underfoot, all while the 2.5 Impact Edges and S7 Base stand ready for years of relentless exploration. Paired with the responsive Strive 13 Demo bindings, you'll experience a direct connection to the snow, translating every subtle input into immediate action and offering the convenience of quick adjustments for varied boot sizes—perfect for dialing in your stance or sharing the stoke. This setup isn't just equipment; it's a co-conspirator for those who view the entire mountain as their playground, demanding a ski that can keep pace with boundless ambition.
