The Armada Locator 112 is a freeride ski designed for riders who like to explore off-piste terrain with a playful edge. With a generous 112 mm waist, it’s built to float in deeper snow while still handling variable conditions, making it a solid choice for adventurous skiers looking to break out of groomed runs.
Featuring a 136/112/128 mm sidecut at 180 cm, the Locator 112 offers a balanced blend of stability and maneuverability. The wider tip and tail help initiate turns smoothly and provide extra lift in powder, while the slightly narrower waist keeps it responsive on firmer snow. Mounted with a flat binding interface, this ski lets you choose your preferred binding plate for a setup that matches your personal stance and style.
At a turn radius of 24 meters (in the 180 cm length), the Locator 112 carves medium-sized arcs—enough to hold speed through wider turns without feeling overly tight in tighter spots. The sidecut dimensions (136 mm tip, 112 mm waist, 128 mm tail) determine how the ski bends through its length, giving you predictable edge hold on both open faces and steeper chutes. The flat binding interface means there’s no pre-mounted plate, so you can position your bindings exactly where you like.

Armada says about the Locator 112
When deep powder is in the forecast and big terrain is on the menu, reach for the Locator 112. With a modern shape optimized for huge float and high speeds thanks to a longer radius and lower profile camber and rocker, the big dog of the Locator Series is primed for those dream days when everything lines up. A touring-focused design with a lightweight construction means even though the 112 devours descents it’s efficient on the uptrack and serves up no-nonsense performance for when the backcountry demands your ultimate attention. That’s a good thing because chances are you’re going to want to take another lap.
