Manufacturer’s Description of the Armada AR6:

"The AR5 has officially been laid to rest, and in its place we have introduced its protégé, the AR6. This series still holds true to the intent of the AR5; however, it has undergone an overhaul making it even better suited as a park and pipe ski and also improving its all-mountain performance. The major change in the AR6 is two fold. We have widened the dimensions of this particular model to provide skiers with increased stability. In addition, the variable slant sidewall technology used in the past has been replaced with a vertical sidewall. In doing so, excess sidewall material has been eliminated and the core widened, furthering weight savings, overall durability and increases edge durability. By incorporating the Armada designed AR1 core along with carbon fiber stringers in the tail, the AR6 is more stable, stronger, and lighter than ever before. All this, combined with the addition of the 166cm to the line, rounds out the largest, most high performance offering yet from the ski that started the Armada revolution. It is simply the one ski in the Armada line that our athletes cannot do with out."

I have been looking at the AR6’s but also the Line Prophet 90’s. I want the ski to perform well off jumps, rails, park, and pipe, but also to be able to handle the back county and just regular trails. Someone please give me some advice?

Definately go with the Karmas. Good underfoot for light pow, and beast in park and kick it all over the mountain.

This is a great park/pipe ski but also great all over the mountain.  This years is supposed to be lighter and at 82-86 underfoot works in pow.  Not to mention the graphics are sick like always and Armada is a trusted brand.

The AR6 is new this year replacing the AR5. It improves the all mountain capability of the AR5 by being wider. It is also now better in the park because it’s light and easy to throw around in the park. Feeling the flex in the shop, it seems like the perfect blend between park and all mountain.

I’m an advanced skier that loves pretty much everything. From the park to backcountry to the moguls… and groomed trails. Which of these two skis is overall better?

Get the AR6, Volkl,you will find too heavy and stiff. The AR6 will be more fun in the back country and will kill the park.

I am an intermediate to expert skier.  I spend about 30% of my time in the park, and the rest is primarily spent on piste.  I just bought the AR6’s along with look PX 12 ti bindings.

The guy at the store told me that Armada’s can only be mounted in the factory set spot.  I was wondering if this is so, and if not where should I mount them?

I am looking at the Armada AR6, Salomon 1080 Thrusters and the 4FRNT STL, which ski is better for all over the park with a little bit powder skiing?

I would like to know which is better for all over the park and pipe. AR6 or the Pipecleaners??

The only advice I can give is that I have owned 2 model years of AR5, and I now have the AR6 in 181, it absolutley kills any twin tip I have ever skied, wide underfoot and I never thought I would say this about Armada, but they can carve like a gs ski, I chose this over the new Volkl Bridge and you wont be disappointed.

Pipecleaners will be better in the Park/Pipe due to their flex pattern but the AR6 will be better all-mountain
