Hola Newschoolers,

Have a few things to sell and/or trade.
First up is my 178 Armada Al Dentes with look pivot 14 bindings. These skis are the best skis i have ever ridden. They are tons of fun outside the park, but very very nice inside it. You have all heard the reviews, there buttery as hello, super fun. They have about 20ish days on them. Only damage is super tiny edge crack that i got within the first couple days. Has not acted up or affected the skiing at all. Last thing is they have a 'base split' which like water got stuck in the base and cracked the wax. Its bull shit i should get them warrantied, but it would take so long to ship them, get them shipped back, get them remounted, and finally ski again. Its all ptexed up and fine now. Got it on the 3rd day riding em.

Next is my batalla all mtn twins 177. Handmade in the USA. 2014 models.

Next is my saga purple tint suit. Its in 9/10 condition, No stains and no tears. Super cool looking suit.
The picture of me wearing it is on instagram and its super filtered. The purple is not that vibrant instagram made it really pop out.

For pricing:

I spent 850 ish on the armadas. Offer up on them looking to get 600 for them WILL TAKE TRADES
for skis of equal value. Park skis only. (on3p. moment type skis)

want to get 350 shipped for the batallas

180 shipped for the saga suit

IM OPEN TO OFFERS THO JUST DONT LOW BALL ME

FOR MORE PICS AND INFO TEXT ME

Those skis are done. Warranty them, you'll never get $600 for that setup. If water was able to get inside the base and cause it to crack there is most definitely water damage in the core of the ski.

Water froze in the wax and split it. It happened on 3 day and I got it repaired same day. My skis are still going strong nothing is wrong with them

Water did not get in the "wax" and freeze. It got in the base, froze and split. Wax is what you put on the base of your skis, not the actual ski. If anyone buys these skis for anything near that price they are a fool. There is most definitely damage to the structural integrity of the ski.

Yes because you have the skis in your possession and know what happened to HIS skis, if it's that big of a deal then buy the skis and do it yourself instead of complaining about it for no reason

Yes, I do know what happened, you explained kind of...not really correctly. unfortunately since you don't understand what happened to the skis, I'll explain it to you... I've had this happen before. The base of your ski, unfortunately absorbed some water. Possibly due to manufacturing defect or other reason *****the base of your ski and wax are completely different. Your base is split, not the wax. Now what happens when water freezes is that it expands. the water that found its way into your base froze and expanded causing the base ( not the wax ) to split. If you know basic knowledge of ski construction you understand that your base ( that is split ) sits directly next to your core. When that core gets wet there is absolutely nothing you can do. The core is weakened due to the water. Core rot can happen and eventually your ski will break or become even more noodily. I'm going to assume since you aren't warranting them, you did not purchase them from a dealer. Assuming this because armada is absoulutely amazing with warranties. Now young man. The only reason I felt the need to post in your thread was because you are attempting to sell a damaged item and not describing the actual issue. So I'll say this again, and I'll continue to post in any thread you make trying to sell these. NO BODY SHOULD BUY THIS KIDS ARMADA AL DENTE SKIS

I'm pretty sure the tech who i took these skis to right after it happened, who fixed them up, knows what happened. And i have been riding on these ever since and got em waxed and ptexed again by the same guy who fixed em the first time and he said there fine. U don't own these and u don't know what happened.

it didn't even hit the base. the wax peeled off in a strip
