Armada Skis 2026: The First Look
Armada is serving up beautiful graphics and rad skis this upcoming season. Are we surprised? Certainly not. But our resident cool kid at school is continuing to get more rad by the year. Authentic to their core, this line of skis is some of Armada’s most well-rounded and speaks to the wide spread of Armada fans out there. Everyone from the core freestyle skier, to the rad dad who likes a cool ski. Dive into the new skis (and other gear) below, and enjoy the tasty new graphics.
What’s New
The big news is the Armada AR One ski boot. We’ll do a deeper dive in our new ski boot preview, but the quick rundown is a collection of five new boots. An AR One 130 and 110 with the premium liner, along with a 120, 100, and 90 flex option. The boot is a combo of an overlap style and cabrio style boot, trying to blend the lateral transmission overlap boots offer, with the progressive, smooth flex of three-piece boots. The main feature to callout is the very cool “slingshot” buckle over the instep. The slingshot style uses two attachment points to gain extra torque when pulling the buckle tight, and increasing heel hold as such.
On the ski side, there’s a couple new key models from Armada to be excited about from their zero collection and park ski side.


A new ARV 106 Ti. This takes the mold of the mega fun ARV 106 and adds their ATB-X tapered metal sheet. It’s the metal in the Declivity, mashed into the mold of the ARV. Think of the old ARV 106 UL, but opposite. This ski will still be drifty and pivot-y, but much more planted and charge-y.
There’s also a new Kimbo. A very unique ski with a true twin shape and batwing shaped tail. It’s a park ski that doesn’t quite look like a park ski.
For all the freestylers out there, the Edollo gets a revamp this year. Going to a narrower waist width (Henrik has gravitated to enjoying narrower skis lately), along with w3dgewall sidewalls underfoot, the new ski is more durable and more nimble, while retaining the all-mountain versatility in a true twin.
Other Highlights
New graphics for the ARV and ARW series. The women’s line is dropping a women’s graphic for the 106 and 112, so move to the fully unisex ARV line for those big-mountain skis. The women’s skis are identical to the men’s just in those more limited sizes.
The black ARV in the middle is a “Black Edition” graphic, which will be available in every model. Completely the same internally, just a sleek, monochromatic graphic.
And, new Declivity and Reliance graphics.
