Armada B-Dog Skis 2017

@CASABLUNT

Better buttering, similar to a Lobster Roll down the road at Neptune Oyster -- writing this review as I'm waiting for lunch to arrive.  Armada's B-Dog is what Phil Casabon and a handful of Armada engineers came up with.  Phil's canvas is the park or the streets of whatever city he's in and the B-Dog's are his paint brush.  The new B-Dog is a bit narrower and has a tad more pop then the previous model allowing Phil to keep on doing what he does and that's blow our minds.

Construction

AR50 Sidewall - Cap in the tip and tail with sidewall underfoot.  By not having sidewall in the tip and tail the swing weight is reduced drastically and it's considerably more durable.  Sidewall where you need it you most, underfoot. 

Core

Pop-Lite Core - A lightweight core with harder woods layed up horizontally for a powerful feel without all the weight.  

Shape

AR Freestyle Rocker - A traditional sidecut underfoot with rocker in the tip and tail.  The hardwoods underfoot and combination of rocker make the B-Dog unstoppable in any condition.  

Additional Awesomeness

2.5 Impact Edge - An oversized special heat-treated edge that is lightweight and incredibly durable.

Carbon Kevlar Stringers - These stringers are strategically placed to give the skis the added pop you've been looking for!

Binding

The Armada B-Dog does not come with a binding. We recommend you use a binding that will accommodate your skiing needs (all-mountain, freeride etc.). Be sure the release settings will work for your particular activity. Questions about what's best for you, contact an expert at theskimonster.com.

Recommended Binding: Look Pivot 12
