Description
Can't decide if you want a park or freeride ski? Then you should definitely be looking at the ARW 96. It combines the best elements of a freestyle model with its light nimble handling and the power and grit of a freeride ski. Ash Stringers in the poplar wood core help put you on a solid foundation for whatever the mountain has to throw at you.Terrain Type & Ability LevelTerrain Type Genuinely ready for anything, except maybe the very deepest days. It has a firm enough flex and construction that it will grip on hard snow and hold an edge whether pushing out carved turns or maxing the speed through difficult snow, but it’s not so stiff that it hinders in the park and will still butter and press.Skier TypeSkiers who want a ski to do laps in the park and still perform like a proper all mountain ski when ripping around the rest of the mountain.OverviewShape96mm in the waist works for a variety of conditions without negatively affecting park performance. It’s wide enough to float and feel stable in softer/deeper snow, but still narrow enough to feel good on firm conditions. The 17.5m (163cm) radius is medium for a ski like this, mixing stability with turning so it that it feels good everywhere.RockerAR Freestyle Rocker uses rockered tips and tails combined with positive camber under foot 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.CoreArmada’s Poplar Ash Core uses lightweight poplar combined with higher density full-length ash stringers to create an impossibly lively ski that has all the power needed for boosting to new elevations.ConstructionThe AR75 Sidewall uses semi-cap sidewall along the majority of the ski with a full cap at the tip and tails. This combination helps absorb high speed chatter and impacts from jibs.Key Features2.2 Impact edgeHeat treated and built to avoid excess weight while maintain durability, this edge gives the best balance of durability and feel of the whole Armada collection.S7 BaseThe perfect blend of durability and speed.Technical SpecificationsSize (cm)Tip Width (mm)Waist Width (mm)Tail Width (mm)Radius (m)Weight (g)1631239611517.516501701249611618.51750General InformationSkier Ability: Intermediate/Advanced/expertTerrain Type: Freestyle Rocker: Tip/Tail RockerRadius: MediumBase: SinteredBindings: n/aDIN: n/aConstruction: Semi SidewallCore: WoodDemo: NoSizing Description: eye level for the maximum ease of spinning and rail tricks, but you need to go bigger for extra stability or speed and for all mountain versatility, especially important on the wider models that are designed to spend more time away from the park.
