About the Armada Tracer 88

The Armada Tracer series continues the theme of being the a great every day ski!

In recent years Armada entered the lightweight touring game for the first time, with the goal to redefine skiability in this segment. The Tracer 88 has gotten a full overhaul, pushing it's limits even further.

With a 88mm waist width, the Tracer sits in the All mountain section of width but leaning towards piste and graded terrain with enough width to play off to the sides and explore powder when theres a fresh fall. AR75 sidewalls give excellent edge hold and power transmission, so wherever you find yourself the Tracer 88 will give supreme hold on ice and hard snow. The Caruba core consists of lightweight wood running the length of the ski whilst a harder laminate is present underfoot, giving premium levels of agility and maneuverability without sacrificing on security or dampness. All-mountain rocker gives optimum float for powder and excellent levels of pivot to get you down tight couloirs or between trees.

A new and unique technology to Armada is the Adaptive Mesh, A variable angle weave optimizes vibration damping along the length of the ski to make the ski more damp, stable, and tough without adding weight. In the ends of the ski, the weave runs nearly tip-to-tail, filtering chatter and tip bounce. Underfoot, the weave runs side-to-side, filtering vibration introduced through the edges either by ice, bumps and crud. There is also titanal reinforcement under the binding position to add stability and to increase dampening capabilities.

The Armada Tracer 88 feels at home in the resort and would be perfect for intermediates with high aspirations and advanced skiers wanting something light to tour on that will still let them reap the benefits on the descent.
