The are insane.....

I got an early issue of Powder Mag. at the OR tradeshow in SLC. It says that Armada is going to release them in November. And it says the dimensions are going to be 125-135-133-134-120. I can't wait to see a pair.

dude those skis are a light meter and a half wide.....plus look a the space between them. One of those skis is HALF a light meter.You put them together, they are ONE light meter, if you eliminate the space between the skis. You jus thave to look at it right. And no....they will not put old graphics on protos man, they will put nothing on protos so that kids don't know what the pros are riding on, or whatever is cheepest, which would be no graphic.

Thats full of shit, the reason why companies dont spend time and money putting graphics on topsheets is because pro's dont care what the ski looks like, and they need to prototypes to actually WORK and ski well before bothering with anything as minor as graphics. I dont know why Armada would actually spend time putting topsheets on thier prototype skis, its a waste of time and money.

you guys are fucking retards, those are the bases of the orriginal 176 madsteez ar5's shot with a fucking fish eye lens so they look all warped and distorted. I can't belive you retards are using the size of a light meter in his hand to rationalize what kind and what size of ski is sitting in the snow.
