The Armada ARV 100 is a playful, all-mountain freestyle ski with a 100 mm waist and AR Freestyle Rocker. Built to charge jumps, rails, and slopes alike, it delivers a balance of pop, responsiveness, and durability.
DESCRIPTION
The Armada ARV 100 expands the ARV line into mid-fat territory, blending freestyle features with all-mountain capability. With its AR Freestyle Rocker (rockered tip & tail combined with camber underfoot), it transitions smoothly through mixed snow, yet still delivers solid carving when pushed.
WHY WE LIKE IT
Its combination of pop, dampening, and versatile shape makes it ideal for riders who like to jump, butter, and carve all in one session. The w3Dgewall design enhances durability and edge grip without adding too much weight, and the updated poplar core brings improved stability over prior versions.
WHO IT IS FOR
Intermediate to advanced freestylers and all-mountain riders wanting one ski that can hit park features but still keep up off jumps and in variable conditions.

THINGS TO CONSIDER
Because it leans toward freestyle, it’s not as stiff or as damp as a full freeride ski with metal. In very chopped or icy snow, it may feel a little less planted. Also, its 100 mm waist offers decent float, but in deep powder a wider ski will perform better.
FIT & SIZING CONSIDERATIONS
This ski generally rides true to size. If you prefer more agility and easier spins/butters, you could size down a little. For better control and stability at speed, stick to your typical size or go slightly longer.
