Yes, that is the new Osama Bin Jibbin by Armada
It has massive Rockered, and the only part of the ski that touches the snow is right under foot. Tanner will be using them in the X-games.

its a pole, if you look at the far side of the stand you will see another pole,  but they also might be these new 2010 skis i heard of.

So..I was up at Blackcomb yesterday and I saw an Armada rep doobin on the line and he said that it's their new Chick Stick: the Palmella Armadason....it's 36-21-32  heavily rockered in the tips and in the tail. You'll need to mount her center though...

Has anyone ridden her? Just wondering how the skiis were....I heard Matt Harvey was so steezed on the ARW this year and Women skiiss and that he was going to ride the ARW ...so I was wondering if anyone had ridden this ski and how she rode on the hard pack...or in the pow.

We MIGHT...be seein it at X...crossing fingers..

awwwwwhhh ...what a cute puddy cat!!

Big UPS to all those who have put their input ...and I'm soooooooo jealous of the ones who have ridden her!! Can't believe Armada leaked this ski out so early!!! NS will probably take this thread down as soon as they see this proto pic mistake...

Anyone else ridden her??
