Well the dimensions are almost the same with both. Armadas have a P-TEX sidewall which is more durable,and I just like the way they shine. The PE's are also a very versatile ski for all terrain,as the ar5. The turn radius implies the possibilities for quick,yet controlled manouevers with. I say:buy 'em both.


Oh yeah,I've never ridden neither.

only advantage of the pe's is the price tag. everything else goes to the ar5s

I've skied both and I'm having problems deciding as well.
PEs:
Pros
-super versatile, and probably won't let you down ever
-graphics are off the hook
-durable, as are all K2 skis
-price is nice
Cons
-probably the next 1080, everyone will have them
-SUPER stiff, maybe a little too stiff?

Armadas
Pros
-Rider owned and operated son, support your fellow skiers, damn the man!
-Rides hella well, very versatile
-Rare
Cons
-ugly graphics
-expensive

Verdict:
I dunno, both are good...I might end up going with K2 though, just cuz damn the stiffness, I'm a man, I can take it. Plus it looks so much sweeter

i'd even say they're pretty soft, not as much as the scratch, but if u ever rode atomic or somthin, they feel like butter
