Armada ARV 106 Skis 2026

Product Details

Rocker Type

AR Freestyle Rocker– Rockered tips and tails are combined with positive camber underfoot to allow the ski to charge with ease through unpredictable snow and maintain a solid carve when asked to do so. Turn the whole mountain into your playground.

Flex

Flex (1=Soft, 10=Stiff)– Tip = 6, Waist = 7, Tail = 7

Core

Poplar Core– Stability, power, and ease are paramount in this 100% poplar wood core. For those looking for predictability and smoothness, the Poplar core delivers in all snow conditions.

Laminates

Ash Binding Insert– Ash binding inserts provide maximum strength and binding retention with a more sustainable construction than binding inserts made from other materials.

Sidewalls

w3Dgewall– The w3Dgewall is a radical reimagining of ski design. Our engineers went to work on a unique concept to create the most durable, highest performance construction we’ve ever built. The w3Dgewall is a 3D molded, injected sidewall that’s angled where it joins the wood core, creating a mechanical bond in the mold during ski construction for a stronger, more uniform connection between the sidewall and core. With more material in critical areas for added durability and a three-dimensional taper in the tip and tail, the w3Dgewall creates a ski that will stand up to more abuse while providing enhanced edge grip at reduced weights.

Base

S7 Base– Durable and low maintenance, with a speed additive for quickness.

Edges

2.5 Impact Edge– Oversized and specially heat-treated, this edge is built to resist impact damage in the most demanding situations.

Binding Compatibility

We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.

Specs

• Terrain: All-Mountain More

  Terrain

  
  
  All-MountainAll-mountain skis are designed to handle anything you throw at them including powder, ice, groomers, steeps, heavy snow, and everything in between, but they aren’t necessarily a master of any one terrain. If you’re only going to own one ski to do it all, this is what you want. All-mountain skis generally have what we call mid-fat waists that range from 80-110 mm.
  
  
  
• Skis: No Bindings
• Ability Level: Intermediate-Advanced More

  Ability Level

  
  
  Intermediate-AdvancedWhether you’re a progressing intermediate exploring new runs and terrain, or an accomplished rider seeking new thrills, the majority of skiers and snowboarders fall into this level. Intermediate to advanced skis and snowboards may be somewhat wider or stiffer than beginner-intermediate skis and snowboards, usually with a stronger wood core and sandwich sidewall construction. Intermediate to advanced boots and bindings range from softer flexing freestyle options to stiffer choices built for stability at speed.
  
  
  
• Rocker Type: Rocker/Camber/Rocker More

  Rocker Type

  
  
  Rocker/Camber/RockerRocker/Camber/Rocker skis have the playfulness and float of a rockered ski as well as the added edge hold of a cambered ski. The contact points on skis with this profile are closer towards the middle of the ski than a fully cambered ski, but still not underfoot. The cambered midsection provides a longer effective edge on hardpack, increasing edge hold and stability, while the rockered tip and tail provide floatation in deeper snow and allow the ski to initiate and release from turns easier.
  
  
  
• Turning Radius: Medium More

  Turning Radius

  
  
  Medium17-22 m radius is best for all-mountain and park & pipe.
  
  
  
• Core/Laminates: Wood
• Tail Type: Partial Twin Tip More

  Tail Type

  
  
  Partial Twin TipPartial twin tip skis have a tail that is turned up, but not as much as the tip. This gives you the ability to ski backwards and back out of tight spaces, but these skis are mainly designed to ski forward.
