Replying to Buying help request: Armada ARVs
- I am 175Lbs, 6ft tall, ski 40% Colorado & 60% Northeast.
- Looking for a ski that will last me a few years and I can take into powder.
- 60% park (only jumps now) & 40% all mountain jibbing and cruising.
I prefer a medium to stiff flex and favor stability.
- will ski probably 15 days a year on average (shitty work and being 24 now). used to be significantly more.
i am split between the 106 and the 96, also possibly the edollo zero if its the more stable version(?). im afraid that the 106 will be not as stable carving on groomers in the northeast. i havent skiied a wider ski yet. i also feel like a stiff edollo could be a phenomenal all mountain ski or go into the arv lineup. or i could be wrong. i haven tried any of these.
I also cannot decide on a length. my last skis were the ar6 2010 171. those are too small, too soft, and are tough in deep snow.
I love armada, great company and reliable skis, my ar6s are still fine with the obvious reduction of stiffness after all these years.
does anyone have experience on any of these, and can make a recommendation?
thanks ahead of time
