The 2027 Armada ARV 100 with Tyrolia Attack 14 GW Bindings sets the bar for playful all-mountain range, a freestyle-twin daily driver whose middle-of-the-road waist and tip-and-tail rocker chase laps from powder to park to frontside corduroy. Versatility is the entire point. We paired the ARV 100 with the Tyrolia Attack 14 GW because of the Attack’s light weight, reliability, and ease-of-use for all mountain and freeride skiers. Additionally, ample elastic travel and direct power transmission function to ensure these bindings cater perfectly to the needs of demanding freeriders.

Why we like it:

Few freestyle twins balance as cleanly as the ARV 100. It avoids every extreme, never too soft or too stiff, too wild or too damp, so whatever conditions show up on a given day, the ski tends to have a ready answer.

Who it's for:

Intermediate to advanced skiers wanting a flexible, playful twin that refuses to box them into one discipline will appreciate it most. It is a strong pick for daily-driver shoppers, weekend regulars, and anyone who bounces between park, groomers, and off-piste in a single session.

Highlights:

Built around a 100 mm waist, the ARV 100 draws its life from a Poplar core that snaps and rebounds the way a freestyle-leaning all-mountain ski should. A dose of ash beneath the bindings firms up the mount zone for clean landings and harder turns, and W3DGEWALL injected sidewalls add structure and uniformity to the core bond without tacking on weight, keeping the ski quick. Tip-and-tail Freestyle Rocker handles soft snow and switch landings, camber underfoot supplies bite on firm days, and an Impact Edge plus S7 sintered base keep it gliding and surviving rails and ice. With a low stand height of just 17 millimeters, the 2027 Tyrolia Attack 14 offers an impressively close connection to the snow, delivering precise power transmission and a confident, locked-in feel. The FR Pro3 toe piece allows for a full 180 degrees of boot release, enhancing safety in a variety of fall scenarios, while the AFS (Anti-Friction Slider) ensures reliable re-centering and consistent release characteristics. Built to withstand hard use, the Attack 14 combines durability with performance, making it a go-to option for aggressive skiers who demand trust in their gear.

Things to consider:

All that freestyle DNA tilts the ARV 100 toward play rather than pure aggression. Skiers craving a more charge-oriented, freeride feel should step over to the AntiMatter 100.

Fit & sizing considerations:

The number on the topsheet matches how it skis. Use your standard all-mountain length, and consider going longer if you log most days inbounds and want more stability.
