APO Sammy Cs Vs. Nordica Ace. Vs. Armada ar7 2014

I rode the Ace this previous season, great stiff ski with tons of pop to it. Although they have full camber I found I was able to press into them still, and butter around on them as well. If you go for them you won't be disappointed

The AR7 and Sammy are both very similar skis, with full camber, mid 80s waist, and directional sidecut. I have never seen a review (or even a pair on snow) of the Sammy, but most people really love their AR7's.

The only real differences with the Ace are symmetrical sidecut and two sheets of titanal in the core. It will be stiffer and heavier, but the sidecut helps with swing weight.

ive ridden both the ar7 and sammy c pro. sammy c is close to one of the best skis I've ever ridden. id go with them over the ar7 or ace.

Ridden all except the Sammy C's (but Have the KAi Pro's so they cant feel THAT different for performance). Armada's have no pop compared to other 2. Durability of Nordica is amazing since they literally have full length metal support. APO's have some of best carving properties I have ever used. also very comfortable and solid feeling. AR7s dissapointed me in performance. felt boring to ride, flex was nothing special, and overall not a fun ski to use. Other two I highly recommend. Nordica's will be more durable imo. My Kais are pretty beat up after half a season of hard skiing. Nordicas have 2 seasons of moderate skiing.
