In short

Designed from the ground up for the smaller framed shredders the Armada Short Pants Paradox provides high-performance big-mountain charging in a shorter length. So if you don't need the length, but require the performance the Short Pant Paradox is for you. No more shrunken chargers or noodly wigglers!

In detail

Rocker Camber Small Rise
Skis with a rocker in the tip, camber in the middle and a small rise in the tail are very versatile. The ski is easy to turn, and the camber under the foot gives the ski grip on harder snow. The tail is slightly raised, but it is not like a full rocker. This makes for a balanced combination of easy turning and carving, without compromising on stability.

Caruba Core
A lightweight core of Caruba wood provides a very low weight, but maintains the necessary cushioning and power on the descent.

All-mountain Edge 2.1
Strong steel edge adapted to the ski type. The Allmountain 2.1 is a thermally reinforced steel edge with perfect balance between durability and ski feel.

Sidewall Construction
A durable PU sidewall seals and protects the ski’s layered construction while adding structural strength. By improving power transfer from the skier to the edges, sidewall construction delivers better edge grip, increased stability at speed, and more precise handling. It also enhances durability and impact resistance for long-lasting performance.

Characteristics

  1. Freeride
    Shape

    Freeride

    The shape of a freeride ski is designed for use off the piste. Its wider platform provides more flotation in soft and deep snow, while helping the ski remain stable and controlled in variable snow conditions.

  2. Tip Rocker
    Profile

    Tip Rocker

    A Tip Rocker profile has an earlier-rising tip combined with camber underfoot and more traditional contact towards the tail. This makes turn initiation easier while maintaining good grip and stability on hard snow.

  3. Light Woodcore
    Ski core

    Light Woodcore

    Focused on reducing the overall weight of the ski. This makes the ski feel lighter and requires less effort to steer and carry.

  4. Directional
    Ski outline

    Directional

    Features a longer and generally wider tip than tail, with the sidecut positioned further back. This makes the shape clearly focused on forward skiing and provides more support and direction when entering and exiting a turn.

  5. Full Sidewall
    Side wall

    Full Sidewall

    Uses a vertical sidewall along almost the entire length of the ski. This provides direct power transfer to the steel edges and is commonly used on skis where precision, edge grip and support are important.

  6. Medium
    Flex

    Medium

    Offers a good balance between easy flexing and sufficient support. This keeps the ski accessible at a relaxed pace while providing more stability and control as speed and load increase.

  7. Long
    Radius

    Long

    With a radius of 22m @ 176cm, this ski is focused on wider turns and greater stability at higher speeds. Short turns require more input to put the ski further onto its edges and change direction more quickly.
