"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I really enjoy the ARV 88 Ski for its versatility. Whether I'm carving through groomers or hitting the park, it offers a smooth ride and reliable performance. The twin-tip design makes it great for tricks and playful skiing, while maintaining stability at speed. It's a solid choice for someone looking to explore different terrains with confidence.""Who It’s ForIntermediate to Advanced Park and All-Mountain Skiers:The ARV 88 is perfect for skiers who want a freestyle-focused ski that performs in the park but also has the stability to carve groomers and explore varied terrain. It’s ideal for riders who like to mix tricks with fast laps across the mountain. What It’s ForFreestyle Progression with All-Mountain Capability:At 88mm underfoot, the ARV 88 thrives in the terrain park, pipe, and on groomers. Its twin-tip shape, playful rocker/camber/rocker profile, and lightweight build let skiers butter, spin, and land confidently while still carving with edge hold when the snow firms up. Why We Like ItLightweight, Durable, and Freestyle-Ready:We like the ARV 88 because it takes Armada’s freestyle DNA and makes it work across the mountain. The poplar core keeps the ski light and agile, while the new w3Dgewall construction adds durability and stability without extra weight. Ash inserts reinforce the binding area for confidence when landing big tricks. It’s a modern park ski that doubles as a playful all-mountain tool."
