However, if there is someone I think could get it right, its Armada.
I deliberately hit all the stickier rails in the park and they slid perfectly.
The flex is also insanely smooth without edges affecting it.
A fucking bulldozer of a park ski.
Theyre on the heavy side, stiff and super stable on landings.
Not your top choice for something playful but great for skiers who like to go big.
But I got to try out some different mounting points, sizes and non-detuned edges at On Snow.
The new Bacon rips, especially on short radius turns.
In the 184, which is what my test pair are, they were slower but still ripped.
In the shorter length I found them too soft for easily controlled buttering, but at 184 theyre perfect.
Get hyped for these though, theyre going to be a very popular ski.
I thoroughly enjoyed these for carving the groomers at Copper on the way to the park.
They also did not disappoint on the jumps - poppy on takeoffs and stable on landings.
These are designed to charge with the option of jibbing as well.
Much love for them, I cant wait to spend more time on them for the Roofbox Review.
From the first run, they felt super responsive.
The hype is real and I want a pair.
