2027 Armada Whitewalker 108 Skiswith Tyrolia Attack 14 GW Bindings

The 2027 Armada Whitewalker 108 with Tyrolia Attack 14 GW Bindings is the trimmed-down entry in Sammy Carlson's signature line, an all-mountain freeride ski built from ultralight Caruba and carbon with 3D-beveled tips and tails. It splits its time fifty-fifty for skiers who want to charge and play through mixed snow. We paired the Whitewalker 108 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:

The 108 carries the Smear Tech magic onto a far more adaptable all-mountain platform. Its 3D-beveled tip and tail still smear and shed snow like the wider Whitewalkers, but the narrower waist makes it usable on days when the 116 would be plain overkill.

Who it's for:

Advanced and expert skiers wanting a Sammy-influenced freeride ski with broader range than a pure powder twin are the fit. It is a smart call for soft-snow regions, big-mountain skiers who want some carving in the mix, and creative freeriders after a more daily-driver-friendly Whitewalker.

Highlights:

Around a 108 mm waist, Smear Tech leads the way with 3D-beveled tip and tail profiles that resist hooking, self-center in deep snow, and stay surfy no matter the direction of travel. A Caruba core keeps the ski light and resilient, and carbon reinforcement adds snap and torsional stiffness without the weight. Lightweight Edges run heat-treated for a livelier feel, the Comp Series Base layers carbon into sintered UHMW for glide and durability, Pin Tip & Tail keeps the contact points minimal, and AR75 sidewalls cap a build tuned to do everything Sammy asks of an all-mountain ski. 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:

Even slimmed down, the 108 still leans freeride and soft snow. It can carve and cope with hard snow, but anyone who lives on hardpack or wants a true carving ski should look at the AntiMatter 92 or 88.

Fit & sizing considerations:

Rocker keeps some of the length off the snow, so it skis marginally short, meaning you can stay at your usual all-mountain length or add a size for more stability and float.
