Armada Stranger Skis 2023
The all-new Stranger skis from Armada merge carving with freestyle and freeride
- Warning: Last items in stock!
The goal was straightforward. Build a 15m radius ski that we can take to the groomers on an average day with friends, carve hard, trick around on, laugh and have a good time. No bottomless pow, no 80-foot booters, no racing gates. Make the most of average conditions at your local resort because piste skiing can be way fun with the right tools. 100mm under foot, featuring a straight-tapered, edgeless butterzone in the tip and a rockered Springboard Tail for endless wheelies and extra pop, the all-new Stranger merges carving with freestyle and freeride attributes.
Reject the status quo. The Zero Series is inspired by the ground-breaking creativity of Armada’s athletes and engineers, pushing innovation further and redefining the limits of how skis are supposed to perform. Each Zero Series ski is designed to exacting standards, combining pioneering shapes with advanced materials. This collection embodies our commitment to challenging expectations by equipping skiers with the tools to take the sport into unexplored territory from remote peaks to urban handrails, infusing imagination into every aspect of skiing. Extract the uncommon from the ordinary and refuse to settle. This is Zero.
AR FREESTYLE ROCKER - Rockered tips and tails are combined with positive camber under foot to allow the ski to charge with ease through unpredictable snow and maintain a solid carve when asked to do so. Turn the whole mountain into your playground.
POPLAR ASH CORE - Lightweight Poplar is combined with higher density full-length Ash stringers to create an impossibly lively ski that has all the power needed for boosting to new elevations.
2.5 IMPACT EDGE - Oversized and specially heat treated, this edge is built to resist impact damage in the most demanding situations.
S7 BASE
SPRINGBOARD TAIL - The Armada Stranger has a pretty significant tip rocker and tip taper that would look at home on any powder ski, somewhat reminiscent of the JJs in fact. The tail is squared off, with more or less full sidecut, and less rocker than the tip. The tail rocker is also very different from the tip, with a near-flat angle somewhat similar to some Surface skis. Armada calls the technology ‘springboard tail’.
EDGELESS TIP - The tip is edgeless past the contact points, while the tail features a full wrap edge. All in all, it’s a very unique ski.
AR75 SIDEWALL - Simply put, the AR75 sidewall means that roughly 75% of the ski uses a semi-cap sidewall construction, and the remaining 25% of the length uses a full cap construction. This increased length of sidewall construction helps absorb high speed chatter and impacts from jibs.
