Armada makes a good ski. I think torin uses these or he uses the el rays I can't remember. Are you gonna use them for pure park?

So torin does use them (that doesn't make the ski any better in any terms tho) but yeah good ski for park and pipe. Great edges. Good edge control with ar50 sidewall (cap in top/tail, sandwich underfoot) it's gonna be super poppy and stiff. If you ski a lot of park and pipe and icy/ hardpack conditions id say it will be a good idea.

Good thread. I its softer than the AR7s, and the 2015 looks super dope. Its softer than the El rays, and is softer in the tip than the Alpha Xs. I see no reasons why it wouldn't be sick all over the park (Torin has been slaying on them) but I can't find any decent reviews on them. Im torn between this ski and the ON3P FRs. If anyone has any info, that would be greatly appreciated.

My pipe cleaners have been great, but at this point they're falling apart and complete noodles considering that they are 6 years old and have been mounted 5 times.

5 times?! That's a good ski. How did you mount 5 times without sacrificing performance?
