THEDIRTYBUBBLENot stoked that they got rid of the alpha
MinggI want everything.
McLSWait til they show their 2017 shit. I have reasons to beleive skis are gonna change a lot.
CrotchKillerAll the outerwear looks like Burton and 4square stuff from a few years ago.
captain_whaleAre you indicating I should wait a year to get new skis?
McLSI'm saying apart from their etiquette as a founding/og/cool brand and normally pretty good graphics, it's common knowledge that armada have a shit quality (ski and outerwear) and that their park ski design hasn't changed since it was first introduced way back (a part from the bdog and edollo, which remain pretty specific skis, with a very shit quality nonetheless). With their recent relocation and work in the r&d department I hope that their next content will finally be up to present day freestyle standards.

Swandog7Pissed about this. Also I want them to change the AR7 profile a little bit. Its basically the Pipe Cleaner but for park. Basically the Park Cleaner.
BROLFB-dog replaced the alpha X, same profile.

MinggHad an interesting coversation a while back about this kind of stuff. I think with Travias but it could have been someone else. Anyways, I forget the details but generally ski gear is about 2 years behind snowboarding. The design/testing process takes a couple years so what you see in snowboarding now will be what influences the ski gear that is released in 2 years. Which may be what you're seeing with this line and Burton/4square.
infedel_oneyou sound like a troll, i disagree completely

S.J.WSnowboarding invented the twin tip
snowboarding invented reverse camber
snowboarding invented taper
snowboarding invented different tip shapes
snowboarding invented butter zones
pretty much everything you see in a ski was invented by snowbaorders.
MinggThat stuffs all true. Thanks SJW.
My posts were more or less looking at outerwear trends and that stuff. Just look at snowboarding trends and styles and they're comparable to skiing. It's pretty obvious, no?
.otto.To be honest,i dont like the graphics of the skis at all

Craig114Yeah man, I'm with you. Maybe its just not my style but it seems like the graphics havent changed much in a while. I dont look at Armada stuff that often though so maybe i have just missed it, but all the skis look like they could have come out in 2008. It looks like the 2008 scratch series could be part of this line up.
Pill_CosbyHow do so many people love this? I think both the ski graphics and outerwear are absolutely hideous
.otto.Agreed, not much creativity, and as in graphics, I feel like the whole ski Industry has really lacked in making cool graphics, of course there are some Awesome ones, but most of the time when i look at some skis, im just puzzled as why they would ever create that boring, or weird ski, i know its just my opinion, but skate deck graphics are 9 time out of 10 cooler than any ski graphic
VagabondWhen the fuck is this stuff going to be available to purchase? It said August 21st... They bumped it back 3 days, and now it says yesterday.

Swandog7New Armada stuff is up. Graphics are fire, expanded kids and I believe Womens skis sections, New outerwear and apparel is really dope as well. Check it out.
