if you have an opnion you shoudl probably give reasosning for your thinking. reeall reasons , noit just because you own the skis , so you should rep them. its a tough call, i've heard soo many contreversial things about armada i dont knwo what to believe.

well i've skied both ar5s and PEs and so you can trust me. my ar5s snapped on about the 20th day, but they rode alright before that. the edges also cracked really easily and by the time they snapped there were over 60 cracks in the edges. PEs are awesome alround, have a mad warranty and ski pow well too.
PEs. no question.

my vote goes with the PE's, not only because i own them but because i've heard mixed reports on the armada's.

both skis are mad sick i'm sure so you gotta ride each pair to see which one fits your style best

I hear they fixed this years Armada's, but I ride the 05 PE's and their the best as long as you get them center mounted.

i think the ar5 is a much better all mountain ski. it is sturdy and solid everywhere, and is the best park ski on the market
