The 2026 Armada ARW 84 with Tyrolia TX 10 Bindings is a freestyle-oriented all-mountain twin designed to help emerging female skiers explore new terrain and build their confidence. Whether it’s your first time in the park or you're learning to ride switch, this ski delivers an easygoing, responsive feel that encourages creativity and progression from day one. We paired the ski with the Tyrolia TX 10 in order to maintain the ski's light weight feel while incorporating safety, performance, and reliability. The TX toepiece offers a 180° release and efficient re-centering of the boot, relieving strain on your knees for a full day of fun.

Why we like it:

We love how approachable the ARW 84 feels from the very first turn. It’s light, forgiving, and perfectly tuned for learning new tricks and transitions—whether you're venturing off groomers or starting your first lap through the park.

Who it's for:

This ski is ideal for beginner to intermediate women and teen skiers looking to expand their skills into freestyle and off-trail terrain. If you’re ready to push beyond basic laps and start experimenting with your skiing, the ARW 84 offers the perfect mix of play and control.

Highlights:

A hybrid poplar and composite wood core keeps the ARW 84 lightweight without feeling flimsy. AR50 sidewalls and 2.5 Impact Edges deliver durability for rail slides and repeat park laps, while the S7 base provides smooth glide and easy maintenance. With a centered stance and a true twin-tip shape, this ski is equally comfortable riding forward or switch. The flex hits a sweet middle ground—soft enough to stay playful, yet strong enough to support progression at speed. Tyrolia really packs a lot of great tech into the TX 10 binding, including some of their best and most effective safety featres. The TX toe offers a 180° release, and precise and rapid re-centering of the boot, helping to improve performance while reducing the load on your precious knees. The SXG heel is easy to step into, something which lighter skiers will especially appreciate. With GripWalk compatibility and a sleek design, the TX 10's are ready for your next adventure.

Things to consider:

While this ski is purpose-built for play and learning, stronger or more advanced skiers may want something with more power or width. Stepping up to the ARW 94 or ARW 100 could provide more support for bigger terrain and faster skiing.

Fit & sizing considerations:

These skis run true to size. Shorter lengths are great for skiers who want maximum control and maneuverability; longer sizes will feel more stable as confidence builds.
