Armada Arv and Arw

Specific features of the Armada ARV range and the ARW women’s version

The skis in the ARV line from Armada are all-mountain freestyle models designed for playful performance across all terrains, from the park to deep powder. The range spans waist widths from 84 to 116 mm, featuring a twin-tip shape, traditional camber underfoot, and a double rocker profile to combine edge grip, pop, and effortless manoeuvrability. The 84, 86, and 88 models focus on progression and park riding, the 94 and 100 are versatile daily drivers, while the 106 and 112 lean towards backcountry use. Finally, the 116 JJ floats through powder on big snow days, built for sending it hard in the most remote parts of the resort. The Black Edition keeps the same shape but gains in precision and stability, the 106 Ti offers enhanced edge hold, and the 116 JJ UL sheds weight for greater agility. Recommended ability levels range from beginner to expert depending on the model.

What are the Armada ARV all-mountain freestyle skis?

The Armada ARV series brings together playful, twin-tip skis designed for all-terrain use with a freestyle DNA. Built for men and juniors, with the women’s equivalent being the Armada ARW, these skis let you link tricks in the park while staying comfortable in powder. The twin-tip shape allows switch skiing and smooths out landings and spins. Most models feature a profile combining camber underfoot with a double rocker for a balanced mix of power, forgiveness, and float, while the ARV 84, aimed at beginners, uses a more traditional profile to maximise edge grip and progression. In terms of durability, they feature a tough S7 Base and thick edges designed to withstand park impacts and variable snow conditions.

How to navigate the ARV range

When choosing, consider terrain, waist width, and construction. The wider the ski, the more float and stability you gain in soft snow; the stiffer the build, the more precision at high speed—though this also demands a higher skill level.

ARV 84

With an 84 mm waist, this model focuses on forgiveness and playfulness to build confidence when starting out in the terrain park. It grips well on groomers and helps you progress on rails and small jumps.

ARV 86

More responsive than the ARV 84, it’s aimed at park riders with easy pop and quick edge-to-edge transitions. It remains highly manoeuvrable on groomed runs.

ARV 88

At 88 mm underfoot, it offers a broader platform and more stability than the ARV 86, while staying livelier and more park-oriented than the ARV 94. The camber underfoot paired to a double rocker keeps plenty of pop and easy pivoting for switching between features and piste sections.

ARV 94

Wider and more versatile, it delivers true all-mountain freestyle performance with easy pivoting and a great balance between piste, side hits, and park. It stays lively and enjoyable even when the snow firms up.

ARV 96

A versatile park and all-mountain ski, it’s poweful and fun for doing everything around the resort. It is aimed at intermediate to advanced skiers looking for a responsive daily driver.

ARV 100

Its all-round waist width provides more float for alternating between piste, sidecountry, and light powder days. It retains good agility to stay playful across varied terrain.

ARV 106

With the 106, you start to feel good float. It’s geared towards backcountry riding with solid stability in soft snow. Still nimble enough to throw tricks wherever inspiration strikes, it maintains control in steeper couloirs.

ARV 112

At 112 mm underfoot, this model delivers superior float and smooth support on soft snow. It has a backcountry spirit while keeping a playful character.

ARV 116 JJ

The powder benchmark of the range, it features a very progressive double rocker for effortless float, rhythmic pivoting, and creative line choice. This is the ski for off-piste enthusiasts pushing their limits on every natural jump.

ARV construction variants

Black Edition

Same geometry, beefed-up construction for greater precision and stability at speed, with slightly less forgiveness.

ARV 106 Ti

It adds metal reinforcements for a more directional feel and outstanding stability at high speeds. It smooths out rough snow and keeps your line secure in chopped terrain.

ARV 116 JJ UL

Same geometry as the JJ, but with a lighter construction to maximise agility in manoeuvres, with slightly less damping on hardpack.

ARV 96 RTL

It retains the width and strengths of the 96 but with a more demanding, higher-performance character. It’s aimed at advanced to expert skiers seeking more precision and power.

ARV 84 (Long)

The (Long) versions keep the same shape and construction but come in extended lengths for taller riders. They offer greater longitudinal stability without altering the ski’s core behaviour.

The women’s version: The Armada ARW

The Armada ARW series is the women’s counterpart to the ARV line—fun, agile all-mountain freestyle skis ranging from 84 to 100 mm for park and all-round use, plus a dedicated powder version, the ARW 116 VJJ (UL). All feature a twin-tip shape for switch skiing, camber underfoot framed by tip and tail rockers for a blend of pop, edge hold, and pivot, and a construction built to withstand park abuse.

How to navigate the ARW range

ARW 84

With an 84 mm waist, it helps you progress in the park thanks to its forgiving and playful nature. It inspires confidence on groomers and helps establish solid freestyle fundamentals.

ARW 86

More lively than the ARW 84, it’s designed for park riding with easy pop and quick transitions. It remains smooth and enjoyable on groomed runs for endless laps without fatigue.

ARW 88

At 88 mm, it offers a broader platform and more stability than the ARW 86 while keeping a park-oriented feel. It performs better on groomers, with firmer edge hold through turns.

ARW 94

This is the all-mountain freestyle sweet spot. More float and easy pivoting for alternating between piste, side hits, and features, without losing agility.

ARW 96

With a stronger backcountry character, it provides superior support and solid grip in soft snow. It requires advanced to expert technique to unlock its full potential.

ARW 100

The 100 mm waist delivers significantly more float and enhanced stability across mixed terrain. It stands out from the 94 and 96 with its natural ease off-piste, while staying nimble on groomers.

ARW construction variants

ARW 116 VJJ UL

Same geometry as the VJJ, with a lighter build for improved agility. Slightly less damp on hard snow, but exceptionally nimble in powder.

ARW 96 RTL

Same width as the ARW 96, but with a firmer flex and more demanding ride. It’s aimed at advanced to expert skiers seeking greater precision and performance.

ARW 84 (Long)

Same shape and construction as the ARW 84, offered in extended lengths for taller riders. More longitudinal stability without altering the ski’s fundamental behaviour.

Key strengths of the range

The ARV range brings together all-mountain freestyle skis for men and juniors. It’s playful and versatile, with solid edge grip underfoot and easy pivoting thanks to the double rocker. Narrower-waisted models for the park, while wider ones gain versatility for exploring the backcountry. The constructions keep up across all terrain, the S7 Base and thick edges enhance durability, and the Black Edition, Ti, and UL variants respectively refine precision, stiffness, and weight.
