seriously: http://armadanz.com/

makes me sad. I was set on buying these because I love this ski but now im leaning more towards some ON3P Filthy Rich's. I feel as if FR's arent as good outside the park though and being a 60-70% park skiier I would like something that can still kill it all mountain. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Sorry to make such an open ended thread but theyve always provided me with good advice in the past

I tail tapped a gaper who was standing on the knuckle yesterday. It was a nice firm smack right to the helmet, definitely the high point of my day.- Skithesprings

I'm not quite sure what OP is on about. Nothing beats hitting side jumps at mach chicken and flying 30 feet! -iffe

dont choose a ski based on the topsheet. That is my suggestion.

Obviously being a throwback graphic its not going to be the sickest graphic of the season based on looks alone. To me it is the sickest graphic simply due to the nostalgia it brings back from my yesteryears. I remember 10 years ago sitting in the local shop staring at the original AR5's, a ski from a new company with thall, boyd easley, and evan rapps! TITS. It just brings back the memories. For the 13 and 14 year olds, I'm sure many will not give a shit. But if I decide to get new skis this fall, hello AR7s.

That's what stickers are for. Or buying last year's model at a discount. I can't believe we're actually discussing topsheets as criteria for buying skis here.

I'm 15, and have no clue what you're talking about when you talk about old shit, but personally I think It's the coolest topsheet I've seen for next years equipment, and if my Halos go down this year, I'm going for the AR7. If I were OP, I would get them in a heartbeat.

This. I want to get a pair (or track down a good condition pair of originals) and not even ride them. They just look so sick

If you don't like the graphic put stickers on. Simple as that. Don't buy a ski based on the topsheet as stated before this. Armada didn't change anything from last years ar7 so it will "kill it".
Season is too short to be waiting in lift lines in wisconsin.

Things I've learned in 15 yrs. Honesty is bad, because your name has lame writtten under it your automatically a loser, your not good now you'll never be good at skiing, say anything bad about anything and you're a hater, common sense isn't as commom as you think, idiots were put on Earth to entertain the people that are less of an idiot.

Currently watching 16 and pregnant on MTV. The one girl is cute, I'd probably hit it. The other is in rehab for weed. I didn't even know they had rehab for weed...-TWA$

i'm considering buying the 2013 ar7 because it seems like it's a very good ski and the simple graphic is something I like... there's way too much colors, and shit on most other skis for my taste lol

This year's AR7 graphic is my favorite. I think last year and the one before that were pretty ugly, but this graphic is awesome and reminds me of the Session 1242 days.

Thomas is right, but based on the fact OP is basing his ski decision on graphics he is most likely 12 and therefore will be plenty happy with noodly soft armadas so he can enjoy is 50 foot NY hill hitting butter boxes and sitting on his tails.

Obviously you're still in highschool, because if you weren't you might stand a chance at remembering the original ar5's, this graphic is insanely sick

Obviously your reading comprehension needs some work. Did you read my whole post? Were you not able to quote the whole sentence? To reiterate what you failed to understand, I said they aren't going to be the sickest graphic "based on looks alone." Now, allow me to elaborate. Is it the greatest piece of artistic genius to ever grace the topsheet of a ski? No, not really let's be honest. It's not about that and you appear to understand that fact as well. It's purely about the history and the memories. But your ability to only read the first 3/4 sentence of my post leaves you misunderstood. Now, don't get me wrong-- All things considered (e.g. the history), I think it is the sickest graphic of the season.

Just like the skittles clothing trend is ridiculous, there are quite a few "skittles" top sheets out there that are equally ridiculous.
