I want to be able to ski the pow with ease, and at the same time have enough maneuverability to go through glades safely. Like I said before I also rip groomers hard! I&#39;m in outer mongolia a lot, the Minturn Mile is one of my favorite things to do. Basically I want to know if I should go with the 175&#39;s or the 185&#39;s, I wish they made a 180. What should I do? Are both sizes 115 underfoot?<br />-SHG question_137189 Sat, 07 Nov 2009 14:07:00 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Armada-AR6-Ski/ARM0024M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_136642#question_136642 Armada AR6 Ski<br /><br />Wall Vs AR6 ??<br /><br />Hey dudes! if u comapre the ar6 with the wall ? which ski is better? the pros and the cons? question_136642 Thu, 05 Nov 2009 09:08:19 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Armada-Spectrum-Jacket-Mens/ARM0132M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_136525#question_136525 Armada Spectrum Jacket - Men's<br /><br />Is this the &quot;insulated&quot; spectrum jacket or the shell version? question_136525 Wed, 04 Nov 2009 20:24:55 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Armada-Plasma-Pant-Mens/ARM0135M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_136322#question_136322 Armada Plasma Pant - Men's<br /><br />What is the sizing for these pants? waist, inseam etc... question_136322 Tue, 03 Nov 2009 22:13:41 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/ARM0126/Armada-Alpha-1-Alpine-Ski.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_136149#question_136149 Armada Alpha 1 Alpine Ski <br /><br />I have the 182&#39;s, where should I mount them?

With all the float and soft core I am thinking of mounting B/D 01&#39;s a few mm&#39;s towards the tail from center. With today&#39;s ski float the tele turn technique has changed a bunch for me. Pushing the ski tip to deep and having it pop up behind the other ski&#39;s tail is &quot;almost&quot; hard to do with fat ski tip float. I find myself surfing the front ski with less weight (much less) on the back foot and in return I get rocket like alpine speed. It&#39;s a bit like ice skating where you throw your weight into the front skate and your back skate is for turn and speed check. This is not sit on yo ass ski telemarking it&#39;s more like giant slalom tele. any way.... If anyone has gone outside the box on mounting the tele binding I would like to read about it please. question_133855 Wed, 21 Oct 2009 23:20:22 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Armada-JJ-Ski/ARM0104M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_133740#question_133740 Armada JJ Ski <br /><br />Is it crazy to be thinking about these as a one-quiver ski for western resorts (Jackson, Snowbird) and a bit of side country?<br /><br />I did that with the Katana last year but it seemed a little wide for real tight trees and chutes unless it was deep. question_133740 Wed, 21 Oct 2009 14:01:18 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/ARM0100/Armada-Fleet-El-Rey-Alpine-Ski.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_133605#question_133605 Armada Fleet El Rey Alpine Ski<br /><br />im 5&#39; 8&quot; 130 and lookin at the 185 cm, would this be suicide? question_133605 Tue, 20 Oct 2009 19:59:27 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Armada-Anchorage-Ski-Bag/ARM0125M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_133253#question_133253 Armada Anchorage Ski Bag<br /><br />Would this bag have space for ski boots, armada JJ&#39;s 188 a pair of park skis 171 and my outerwear? question_133253 Mon, 19 Oct 2009 14:26:40 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Armada-JJ-Ski/ARM0104M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_133023#question_133023 Armada JJ Ski <br /><br />I&#39;m loving the reviews of the Armada JJ. They&#39;ll be my first pair of pure alpine skis in a while (I&#39;ve been boarding, randonee/touring, xc recently you know how it is ;). I&#39;m a pretty aggressive all mountain skier. I used to race, but now I&#39;m all about tracking the powder, finding tight lines and the thrill of the ride. But if the conditions are poor you&#39;ll find me riding the lifts all day w/o complaint.<br /><br />I&#39;m looking for guidance on what sizing of a pair of JJ&#39;s would be right for me. I&#39;m 6&#39; and weigh 190. Any tips?<br /><br />For bonus points if anyone has toured on camber/rockered skis like the JJ using bindings like the Baron&#39;s did you find much compromise at the resort when you&#39;re riding lifts all day?<br /><br />Wishing a long white winter to all. question_133023 Sun, 18 Oct 2009 16:48:04 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Armada-JJ-Ski/ARM0104M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_132093#question_132093 Armada JJ Ski <br /><br />Anyone know the weight of the 185? question_132093 Wed, 14 Oct 2009 19:39:52 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/ARM0096/Armada-AR6-Alpine-Ski.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_131840#question_131840 Armada AR6 Alpine Ski<br /><br />torn between these and the dumonts for all mountain and park any suggestions.. question_131840 Tue, 13 Oct 2009 20:35:35 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Armada-JJ-Ski/ARM0104M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_131596#question_131596 Armada JJ Ski <br /><br />I&#39;m pretty much set on getting these....<br /><br />Just wondering if I should go with the 175 or 185.<br /><br />I&#39;m 18 years old, 5&#39; 9&quot;, 135 Lbs, and can ski anything, I also have a racing background so I ski pretty aggressively.<br /><br />I&#39;ve heard the 175&#39;s are like snowblades... but 185 is a lot of ski<br /><br />Would the 185&#39;s be too much question_131596 Mon, 12 Oct 2009 22:34:44 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/ARM0100/Armada-Fleet-El-Rey-Alpine-Ski.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_131559#question_131559 Armada Fleet El Rey Alpine Ski<br /><br />i live in wisconsin and ski groomers. there isn&#39;t much good pow up here.
