Featuring a friendly construction and playful flex, the ARV 84 performs well in both park and all-mountain settings. Its well-balanced design enables skiers to confidently navigate a variety of terrains.

Why we like it:

The Armada ARV 84 shines with its ability to offer a fun and engaging skiing experience, making it a top pick for those who enjoy alternating between park features and groomed runs. The shorter lengths of the ARV 84 come with the L6 binding, ideal for lighter skiers, while the longer lengths are paired with the more robust M 10 binding, catering to heavier skiers.

Who it's for:

This setup is perfect for advancing beginner to intermediate skiers looking for a versatile and durable ski that can handle a range of conditions with ease.

Highlights:

The ARV 84 boasts a playful flex and sturdy construction, beginning with a poplar wood core that provides lively performance. The design is enhanced by a rockered tip and tail for improved float in powder and easy turning in variable conditions. A reinforced sidewall further contributes to edge grip and stability, offering confidence on groomed trails.

Things to consider:

Although the ARV 84 is versatile and friendly, advanced skiers may find its flex too soft for a more aggressive style of skiing.

Fit & sizing considerations:

These ski true to size. Skiers with less refined skills might consider sizing down for increased maneuverability.
