Id say 4frnts cause i have seen so many armadas messed up and the 4frnts have a 2 year warrenty so if something does go wrong its all good.

yeah my 4frnts are still holding strong.
I have a theory that all retards have one long tendon that goes from wrist to wrist, so therefore that is why they always are screwin around with one wrist up, and the other one down.

having looked at both, in my opinion, the 4FRNT's appear to be a better built ski, and I have heard no problems with 4FRNT's delaminating or anything like that.
The one thing that disappointed me with the Armada's the most though was the fact that they can from the factory completely burred and didn't seem to be properly waxed either. Now I have not had a problem with the ski, but having to fix/tune a brand new ski is a little iritating.
life is too short to have any regrets

I dont think that eitheir company even structures the base or waxes them. Not that those are things to decide on whether or not to buy a ski, but I thought it was odd that I had to tune them up a little bit once I bought mine. But I still think that 4frnts are great skis. Check out next years armadas, I've heard that they are going to be built out of the elan factory (so that could be good, and bad) which should possibly make them more durable than now, but who knows?
