Length is pretty irrevelent on ARGs because of the rocker. Ideally they would be even longer so the contact patch would be larger for groomers. That being said they are still the greatest thing I have ever skied in Pow.

^I've seen them in shops in Montana, so I would assume they're out most other places as well.

The 2 skis that Armada sent to the dealer in Japan were sold in the first week. I ordered mine on the internet from the US and they came in 2 days,

Well I was talking to some one in Whistler who had them, he said they were really slow on groomed but in the powder they were great.

Everyone I know who's tried it loves them in pow, says they ski chopped up pow like it's no one's business, claims it's possibly one of the best tree skis ever, and finds it slow as fuck on cat tracks back to the lift.

We have a pair in Vancouver, there's some floating around Whistler, and I assume that the 490-some-odd other pairs are distributed throughout places with lots of snow and big mountains.
