The Armada ARW 88 Ski is a competition-ready freestyle twin built for skiers who demand powerful edge hold, explosive pop, and precise performance in the park and across the mountain. Its 100% Poplar Core creates a snappy, predictable chassis with the stability and energy needed to boost jumps and carve hard, while AR Freestyle Rocker combines camber underfoot with subtle tip and tail rocker for a blend of aggressive edge engagement and off-piste versatility. Armada’s w3Dgewall construction creates a reinforced mechanical connection between the injected sidewall and wood core, increasing durability and edge performance while keeping weight down, while the oversized, heat-treated 2.5 Impact Edge is engineered to withstand repeated impacts. An Ash Binding Insert improves screw retention, and the fast, durable S7 sintered base is optimized for speed and wax retention. With an 88mm waist, 8/10 overall flex, and quick 14.5–16m turn radius depending on length, the ARW 88 delivers the aggressive, responsive feel of a dedicated freestyle ski while retaining enough versatility for hardpack and off-piste terrain.

Performance Profile: For the advanced freestyle skier who wants a stiff, energetic twin-tip capable of handling big jumps, hard carves, and demanding park conditions. The ARW 88 is particularly well suited to riders who prioritize pop and edge hold but still want enough tip and tail rocker to take the ski beyond the park.
