armadas graphics have been blowing balls forever, i dont think i can think of a good looking armada ski in the last like 4 years. the original ar5's arv's t-halls etc.. were fucking awesome, it gave armada a certain look. now they are just like every other company trying to put out over artsy graphics and they just end up looking like every other company.

Most likely everything else would be the same except for the graphic... Same basic technology and ideas, the graphics all look very retro (if you like that look in in for a good season). but as every company they only make very minor tweaks to the actual ski technology. This year the graphics look OK they are all very similar to each other the 12/13 line looks to be very basic.

Yeah, the new AR7 topsheet just killed it for me. 2012 graphic was dope. Guess I'll be waiting for the 2014 model.

Otherwise bigup to everything else Armada

No big mountain ski over 189cm long... I'm not interested. Nor am I interested in a AK JJ or it's wider brother the Magic J

yeah love the new AR7s I like the cleaness of them instead of a cluttered artsy look.

the jacket on the very left is called the "reqiuem jacket" and is the replacement for this year's armory jacket...

it will be insulated and long fit just like the armory... henrik's jacket is among the requiem styles and will be black with a lot of extra details

The 2010 Park skis were amazing. Halo, THALL, AR&, Alpha 1.

I really hate the throwback graphics.
