Is so fucking sick. I was looking through their catalog for next year at work today and I am very impressed. Skis were amazing as always, so excited for the stuff to drop for next season. Graphics are really different yet very cool, rider inspired. The outerwear also looked so dope, lots of cool clothing for next year too. I can probably get pics on here but I'm not sure if Armada would like that a whole lot..

Maybe now that sia is over, someone can post them without harassment. If they get pissed, then they're dumb. It will be free advertising for their outerwear, and their hard goods sales can't get hurt anymore for this season then they already might be after sia.

Some of the skis were highlighted in the NS SIA coverage, but for some reason NS won't show the skis that are all over Freeskier's photo gallery. Not sure what is going on with that, but you can all head over there and check out some pictures. ARV's, AR6's, T Hall's and others.

This will get you started,

freeskier is not being gay and showing some pics of them. however they are dumb fisheye shots. you can find pics of the ants on tgr.

the ar6 basically looks like that yellow and purple print jacket they have.

I saw Armada for next year because we are currently a dealer and I agree there shit for next year is soo good.

We went in going.."yeah we'll see what they got... there a ski brand, not a clothing brand. Maybe pick up a few things"

We left basically with our jaws dropped. They had an excellent mixture of super high end shells to pricepoint insulated and puffys. Every one looked good and all the color stories are great.

So we chose way more than we origionally thought and are probably going to carry 9 out of there 12 jackets or so plus a bunch of hoodies, beanies, t's....

correct me if I'm wrong, do the new t-halls or all of them have chopped ends, like square tails?

beside the new graphics I believe they have moved out the tip and tail so that it does not seem to ski as short. They tweaked it.

Lotta info at  http://www.powdermag.com/buyers-guide/2010/armada-skis-1/   this was the powder week ski test session.... see the video on the same page with the Armada rep.
