well the armada's are more durable than the salomon's, the AR6s being better since they're stiffer. i'd warranty the 9thwards, completely new factory (elan) next year, new topsheets, should be an improvement is what im hearing, 4frnt and some of Armada are both manufatured in the elan factory as well.

well for one. takes pictures of your 9s and email them to warranty@ninthward.com depending on how bad or if its hit damage they should hoook you up. and the new 9 skis for 09 are sick. rode them last month and they are soo much nicer then the last 2 years
