What is the different from the Nordica Ace of Spades TI Pro and the Regular Nordica Ace of Spades Skis? Also are they both a stiffer ski or a softer ski?
Thanks,
Bill

I'd imagine the Ti pro has a sheet of titanium, but I didn't know there were two Ace of Spades. I skied the one with titanium in it, it wasn't as stiff as you would think. It was still kind of playful, I was really surprised.

Ok thanks, ya i only thought there was only one pair too but I was looking at the AOS boots and then a pic of the AOS skis came up and they looked different from what I remembered.

Are the one you skied pretty fast or are they one the slower side? Their site doesn't give much info on the ski.

the ace of spades TI pro was a mid season release along with the ace of spades boots. the other ace of spades is just this years, as in released at the beginning of the season. the ace of spades ti pro and the ace of spades boots are both coming back unchanged next year. the Ti pro has two layers of titanium so they're on the stiffer side compared to other skis but they're not as stiff as you might think. they also have a race base so they're really fast. they are actually really fun and i will be skiing for them on the AOS skis and boots next year.

Yeah, they were quick. And again it is stiffer, but don't let the ti fool you, it's still flexible.

Ok, thanks to both of you. Do either of you know which,in your opinions, be better for me? The Armada Ar7's or the Ace of Spades TI? I ski 75% park and 25% groomers. not much pow by me. In the park im on 70% jumps and 30% rails and boxes
Thanks,
Bill

i don't know anything about the ar7 but if you're gonna be doing groomers the AOS ti pro is sick. the race base is crazy fast. they are really sick in the park too. like i said the i don't know anything about the ar7 so i'm not gonna say the AOS is better but its super sick for sure.

Ok cool thanks for the info on the AOS. Ill have to look at the AOS and the AR7 some more i guess though to see which would be better for me. Right now from what you said the AOS seem super sick cause they kill it in the park and on the groomers. So ill have to look into it more.
Also if anyone has ridden the AR6's and the AOS can you tell me which you think it better. because I am pretty sure the AR7's are very similar to the Ar6's. +K for responses
Thanks,
Bill
