anyone else noticed that it seems armada has a ski missing that should be somewnere in the 105 waist range? its like there is a jump from the ARV to the ANT, which isnt even an all mtn ski. i just think that they should make a ski with a 105 waist that is like identical to the ARV.. somethink along the lines of 138-105-126 ish. no rocker. just an all mtn ripper

^thats what i said but apparently theyre really stiff, plus they only come in a big sizef. i dont know but if thats right then he has a point. armada doesnt really have a fun/wide/soft playful jib ski. same dimensions as 09 ants but with the flex and length of arvs.... is that what youre gettin at?

armada should make a ski that is around 179-186 with 105 under foot and have it the same flex as the
T-Halls in tip/tail but arv flex under foot. and have around 15-25cm of rocker
