Armada Declivity 82 Ti Skis 2023

SLICE, DICE, DO IT NICE.

The Armada Declivity 82ti is the most narrow and most one dimensional offering in the Declivity Series. It's an all mountain ski that likes to spend almost all of it's time hunting for fresh groomers and nice hardpack. It feels smooth and confident on firm snow and isn't demanding at low speeds like some other groomer focused skis might be. Even though this is a more narrow ski it shares some characteristics you'd find in a wider ski. It has enough rocker in the tip and tail to be smeared around and the turn initiation is very smooth. At high speeds this ski feels planted and stable but not dead; and rolling from edge to edge feels almost automatic. This ski grips really well, will eat up any groomer you throw at it and can make any turn shape. It's wider sibling, the Declivity 92ti, is one of the best skis out there. The Declivity 82 is just more focused on crushing groomers.
