The Armada ARV 88 Skis are high-performance freestyle twin tips engineered for park skiing, slopestyle competition, and aggressive all-mountain use. Positioned as the most park-focused ski within the ARV lineup, the ARV 88 is designed for skiers who prioritize pop, precision, and switch capability while maintaining enough structure for resort-wide versatility.
Built around a lightweight poplar wood core reinforced with ash binding inserts, the ski delivers a balance of responsiveness and structural stability. The ash reinforcement increases binding retention strength and improves energy transfer during high-impact landings, while the poplar core maintains a lively and predictable flex pattern.
The AR Freestyle Rocker profile combines minimal tip and tail rocker with camber underfoot, producing a more traditional ski feel with strong edge engagement and high rebound energy. This design supports controlled takeoffs, stable landings, and consistent performance on both park features and groomed terrain.
W3DGEWALL construction integrates sidewall material directly into the core during pressing, enhancing durability, torsional rigidity, and impact resistance. This results in a ski capable of withstanding repeated park use while maintaining edge stability on firmer snow conditions.
While optimized for freestyle performance, the ARV 88 can handle all-mountain skiing, though its strongest performance characteristics are expressed in park, pipe, and freestyle-focused terrain where precision and pop are prioritized.
