They are lightweight and they don't behave like cross-country skis on the way down. The new Armada LOCATOR 88 shatters all preconceptions that skiing downhill on ultralight skis is a nightmare. The opposite is true. In collaboration with mountain guides from Innsbruck, Armada has created something that will get you up to the top first and then down again. They have a lightweight Caruba Core and a light and strong 1.7 Lightweight Edge. Thanks to the AR75 Sidewall and the proven EST All Mountain Rocker, the Locator 88 behaves like the uncompromising king on the downhill, no matter what the ski conditions are. The cherry on top is the titanal insert under the binding that absorbs unpleasant vibrations and a fast Comp Series Base with carbon particles. When you're climbing, you'll appreciate the Batman-shaped AR Bat Tail, where your strap clip will always be centred and you'll never lose it.
