The no holds barred charging ski for smaller-framed shredders.
We all know it’s the size of the fight in the dog that matters. For too long smallerframed shredders have been overlooked during ski development, relegated to half-baked shrunken chargers or noodly wigglers. Not anymore. The Short Pants Paradox was designed from the ground up with a 112 waist, powerful flex and long turn radius to provide high-performance big-mountain charging characteristics in a shorter length. Everyone from big mountain competition juniors to shredding women and men who don’t require the surface area and float of longer lengths can enjoy a ski designed to lace 20-meter turns down the fall line at high speeds while trusting the SPP to stand up to all the punishment they can dish out.

Superior Edge-Grip on the Hardest of snow surfaces.
Armada´s lightest wood species creates the best up-hill feel retaining the power and dampness required in descending the gnarliest of terrain. This core makes no concessions in performance in its quest to be ultra-light.
Armada's fastest base.
Rockered tip and tail combined with positive camber underfoot, to provide roatation in soft snow and create remarkable edge on the harder stuff.
