New for 2025, the Armada ARW 112 with Tyrolia Attack LYT 11 GW Bindings introduces a wide freeride option tailored for women who excel in steep and deep conditions. Its long, low rocker profile enhances turnability in deep snow, while the lightweight wood core and W3dgewall sidewall construction ensure nimbleness both in the snow and the air, along with stability at high speeds. We paired the 112 with the Tyrolia Attack LYT 11 GW because of the Attack’s light weight and reliability for all mountain and freeride skiers. Thanks to a 15% reduction in weight, the Attack LYT 11 is the perfect binding option for lighter weight freeriders, and keeps this setup on the lighter side without sacrificing power or performance.

Why we like it:

We appreciate the ARW 112 for its ease of turning and impressive pop, which makes it ideal for aerial maneuvers. Despite its wide profile, it offers a light and agile feel on the snow.

Who it's for:

This ski is perfect for playful skiers who are eyeing a spot on the Freeride World Tour. Creative big mountain skiers who aren’t afraid to charge downhill will find the ARW 112 to be a nimble and enjoyable ride.

Highlights:

The ARW 112’s longer turn radius provides ample opportunity for creativity, allowing skiers to dictate shape, offering maximum versatility. Armada has also equipped the ski with extra thick and durable 2.5 mm edges, enabling confident park sessions once the fresh lines have been skied out. Fine-tuned for 2026, the Attack LYT 11 is designed to bring the ideal level of safety and performance to skiers looking for a light weight binding for a wide-bodied all-mountain or freeride ski. The new FR LYT Toe is 15% lighter, and offers a sliding AFD for precise and reliable release as well as plenty of elastic travel. Tyrolia’s SX FR Heel is easy to step into, offering an intuitive and frustration-free experience whether you’re stepping into your skis to start your day, or cleaning up from a pow day yardsale.

Things to consider:

For those not residing in particularly snowy regions, the ARW 112’s width may be more than necessary. Its more central mount point and extended rocker profile may not cater as well to skiers with a traditional or directional style.

Fit & sizing considerations:

You can consider opting for a longer length, as the generous rocker profile and central mount point provide some room to size up. As such, Armada only offers this ski in three sizes, ranging from 165 to 185 cm, with a focus on the longer end for women’s skis.
