The Armada ARV 88 Ski 2026 is a lively, all-mountain freestyle twin designed for expert and advanced skiers who want a high-performance ski that excels in park and versatile mountain terrain.

The ARV 88 is built on a 100% poplar wood core providing lightweight stability and smooth power transfer. Its w3Dgewall sidewall construction enhances durability and edge grip while reducing weight. The ski has a flex rating around 7 at the tip and 8 at the waist and tail, delivering a lively but controlled ride perfect for aggressive park skiing and confident all-mountain use. The traditional camber profile paired with a short turn radius (~16.5m) offers excellent carving precision and pop for jumps, while the w3Dgewall technology adds durability for park abuse and variable snow conditions. It is well suited for skiers who want a responsive, poppy ski that can charge hard on groomers, in the park, and off-piste.
