ARV 106 Ski - 2026

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I keep coming back to the ARV 106 because it hits the sweet spot for everyday freeride. It’s wide enough to float on storm days but still holds an edge on groomers. The poplar core feels smooth and predictable, and the w3Dgewall sidewalls are seriously tough. It’s basically the one ski I can trust to do everything."

We count on the Armada ARV 106 Skis when the mountain’s calling but the forecast can’t make up its mind. Designed for all-mountain riders who want a freestyle twist, these mid-fat planks combine a 106mm waist with Armada’s playful DNA, creating a ski that surfs soft snow and charges variable terrain without skipping a beat.

The 100% poplar core delivers consistent flex and balanced power for predictable response when we’re carving at speed or boosting side hits. AR Freestyle Rocker pairs rocker in the tip and tail with positive camber underfoot, adding effortless float in deep snow and reliable edge hold when the conditions firm up. Armada’s w3Dgewall construction uses a 3D molded sidewall for extra durability and precise power transmission, while 2.5 Impact Edges and the fast S7 Base keep the ride smooth, fast, and ready for anything. For days when we want to ski every zone and session every natural feature, the ARV 106 is our go-to.
