Hello NS, this evening I got onto Facebook and found something exciting while scrolling through. Phil Casabon AKA B-Dog has finally received a pro-model ski with Armada called the Twelve Jewelz, he posted a couple pictures of him riding and carrying them on Facebook, check them out! I search barred Twelve Jewelz on here and googled it and nothing came up so I figured I would make a thread because I'm curious what everybody thinks this ski is going to be like? I have a feeling they are going to be very similar to the Halo 2s, hopefully softer though, what do you guys think?

Nah doggie they are just called the b-dogs, they've been known on here for a while, I have no idea why he called them the Twelve Jewels all of a sudden. They are no different from the Halo 2 even though they claimed they were softer, kind of a shitty thing to do on Armada's part.

Yeah looks like it.....that link said 789 AUD which is equal to 735 USD. And the halo 2 is $550 USD if I remember right. Pretty bull If you ask me.

Australia and NZ have crazy markup on their skis, they will probably cost the same as the Halo 2 or just a bit more

Okay that makes more sense. I just couldn't get my head around why they would go up almost $200 for a change in name.

Don't fret my friend. Pretty much everything in Australia is expensive as shit. They will retail in America at around 600.
