So I just purchased the 06/07 version of the Armada AR6.  The guy at my shop said there was no construction difference between this year's and last year's ski but some sites say stuff like it has a new core.  Im not sure if this is just the description of last year's model pasted into this year's so I was wondering if anyone knows if there really is a difference (graphics aside) between this year's and last year's AR6.                      Thanks

Almost sure that they are exactly the same...... construction wise....


by the way for your information I would carefully file the sides of the topesheet to create an angle where the topesheet meets core. because the topsheet chips away like a mutha fucka

Yeah I think armada switched factories this year from Atomic's factory to another one, I dunno whose...so that would change construction a bit, but nothing major. Just buy last years, the difference is essentially nonexistent.
