The Armada ARV 106 23/24 is a freestyle-freeride ski built for riders who split their time between park features and open-snow lines. With a 106 mm waist, it strikes a balance between playful maneuverability for jumps and tricks and enough surface area to stay afloat when the snow gets deep.
Its 20.5 m turning radius delivers smooth, stable arcs at speed while still letting you snap from edge to edge when the terrain tightens up. The 134/106/124 mm profile—wider tip and tail with a narrower waist—boosts float in soft snow and sharpens edge hold on firmer slopes. A flat-mount design means you’re free to fit bindings exactly where you want, without being tied to a pre-set pattern.
Turning radius describes the size of the circle a ski naturally wants to carve; a longer radius like 20.5 m favors stable, high-speed turns over quick pivoting. Sidecut dimensions (tip/waist/tail) show how the ski’s width changes along its length, influencing both flotation in powder and grip on hardpack. And because the ARV 106 comes without a pre-installed binding system, you can choose your own mounting location to suit your stance and riding style.

Armada says about the ARV 106 23/24
The ARV 106 is just as at home suring the white wave as it is thrashing the pro park. It balances a playful yet stable ride in a versatile, durable package for hard-charging skiers in and out of the park. The Smear Tech edgeless base beveling in tip and tail enhances soft snow performance, while the AR75 Sidewall construction and Poplar-Ash Core absorb high speed chatter in icy conditions and on rails. Do it all on the ski that does it all.
