Armada Trace 88

The ultra light Armada Trace 88 Skis are built for the uphill before the downhill, but come through on the descent with real ski performance. Built around Armada s lightest Hybrid Ultra-Lite core with 1.7mm edges and beveled topsheets, this ski is aimed at the touring crowd but works wonders for those seeking a super light and nimble lift-served ski as well.

Product Details
Rocker Type
EST All-Mountain Rocker – Entry rocker with positive camber under foot with subtle tail rocker. Floats in soft snow while making sure the ski stays on rails.

Flex
Flex Pattern (1=Soft, 10=Stiff) – Tip: 6 | Waist: 7 | Tail: 7

Shape
Taper Tops – Beveled topsheets shave mass and lower profile in high density snow, while strengthening the ski's perimeter for maximum efficiency and stability.

Core
Caruba Core – Armada's lightest wood species creates the best uphill feel while retaining the power and dampness required in descending gnarly terrain.

Laminates
Laminate Matrix – Directional layering of fiberglass dictates flex pattern and torsional rigidity.

Titanal Binding Reinforcement – Rubber and Titanal are sandwiched together to dampen vibrations.

Sidewalls
AR75 Sidewalls – Sidewalls provide improved edge pressure under the boot, while cap constuction in the tip and tail provides smooth turn initiation and less hookiness - 75% sidewall, 25% cap.

Base
Comp Series Base – Sintered UHMW polyethylene with added carbon aids in speed and durability on snow.

Edges
1.7mm Impact Edge – Heat treated, built to avoid excess weight while maintaining durability.

Additional Features
I-Clip Tails – Ready for climbing skin tailclips.

Binding Compatibility
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.
