Confirming every one word about SEA116. Just to add - 3 d shape of rockers effectively elliminates vibrations making it very stable even on hardpacked snow and bumpy terrains as well. And yesss it is light and playfull. Great ski. My personal score 10 of 10.
Outstanding breakdown on the pow skies, I only wish in these kinds of comparisons there would be numeric quantification of of rocker by total rocker % and tip and tail %. The visual representation is ok but a numeric quantification would be so much better. Oh, and Twig, did your mom get you those mittens to make sure you wouldn't loose them....Just kidding, I have the same.
I love the KF, ridiculously fun ski! How do the "local rippers" get involved in this? The Banff resorts are my home hills and I make a point of testing and forming opinions on as many skis as I can, would love to help on with the next test
So hard to decide if I want to commit to the heavy revolt or stay with something more playful but can do everything in the ARV112.... Coming from my last two main pairs super7 rossignols I like the light playful ski, but they BOTH broke underfoot after a few seasons each(I like sending some big cliffs), so maybe i just commit to something substantial that i know won't fail me. The Revolt will likely provide that. Also been considering the Armada Whitewalker116 (not mentioned here), but they are hard to find unless you pay at least double
If you're going to lean more heavily into skiing powder the Whitewalker 116 is about the best there is for a light playful pow ski, the ARV112 is going to be way more versatile tough. Where are you located? Multiple US based mail order places have the '25 WW in stock already and my local shop said they can be ordered at MSRP. I dunno about overseas though. Also Armada prices went up this year, as did most companies prices.
@@furpii Honestly both great skis for different reasons. We reviewed the Bent 110 last year, this video will likely help you decide what seems more appropriate for your style of skiing: ruclips.net/video/ESXMv-ZvTWc/видео.html

“Probably the poppiest pow ski we’ve ever tried.”

Revolt 114 looks gnarly. Sign me up

heads up on the MFree 112, the rec is only -3.5 in the 190 (unless they changed it from the test skis).
Was -3.5 when I demo'd them in the spring as well. I found the new M-free's not as comfy and damp as the old

arv 112 vs sea 116 for Rocky Mountain powder?
No black ops? that’s crazzzzyyy
Sender Free 110 made the All Mountain picks ruclips.net/video/fd0nczpJMRc/видео.html
I'd say those are more free ride skis with camber, not sure if that's why they were left off!
Nvm I got to the volkl part and they have a freeride ski on here!
That's exactly what I was thinking
No rossignol is correct :)
Having such a hard time choosing between the arv 106 vs the 112
@@samolson8381 where you skiing? if it’s west i would 100% go with the 112 if it’s ur only ski. midwest prolly 106
I am surprised that the Revolt 121 and the BC 120 didn’t make the list
Nothing new, its the same as past 4-5 years
Is there any differene between the Armada ARV 112 and the ARW 112 besides graphics?
no difference at all with construction, they're the same ski with different topsheets
@@DavidZorko Aight! How would u compare this to Bent 110? Trying to decide who's gonna be my powder ski for the season. Around 110 width, +-2 cm

Pretty sure they are made in China now
