    ARRRRRRRRRRRRG!









    The two black marks are where the flat spot is based on putting the ski on my 100 year old floor which is very even and level, I'm sure. The yellow tape is on the tips. The are of acceptable weight. Not heavy, not mind-blowing light. Flex is medium-stiff I would say. Like a gotama maybe, but I would have to get them next to some other boards to say for sure.

    Now all I need is ninja 916s.

    Yeah a side by side comp. with the DP lotus 138 would be interesting. Damn those things look tasty, with that proto white top sheet and mounted with s916's i could be fooled i was looking at lotus 138's apart form the tips. But since there almost the same ski seems like theres no point, however is it possible that the AGR will be more nimbler as its skinner overall.
    I ski therefore I am.

    Forgot to add, cap construction. Very pocketrocketesque.

    Edit: only in the tip, not so thick like a PR underfoot.

    Dear bossass;

    Please go hike up ranier right now and ski those. I'm assuming this last front dumped some snow up there and would provide a valuable testing surface. Don't worry about crevasses. I'm sure there's more than enough rocker on those to pop you up on the other side.

    sincerely

    Are these actually for sale anywhere yet? Mid-season release? They aren't on the Armada website.

    You can't get them. That's why I'm the coolest kid on the block, and hence the dick-waving post.

    I'm not jealous of jack shit till it snows.

    Actually I'm laughing at you because I already know what all the skis in my house ride like.

    You however, have the gremlins in the corner..............

    And then invest some leashes, or glue bacon to them and bring a dog.

    Upon further review, I want some of these real bad.

    Bossass, what's your address and when are you going to be out of the house next? Thanks.
