The Armada Locator 88 Skis for the 2026 season are precision-engineered for adventurers who demand versatility and lightness in their touring setup. These skis strike an exceptional balance between uphill efficiency and downhill performance, making them a fantastic choice for backcountry enthusiasts who cover diverse terrains.
The Locator 88 features a narrow 88mm waist that provides quick edge-to-edge transitions and exceptional control in a variety of snow conditions, from hard-packed slopes to softer snow. The construction includes Armada's innovative Caruba Core, which is known for its ultra-lightweight properties without compromising on strength, ensuring ease during climbs and agility during descents. The skis also incorporate a TI Binding Reinforcement, which adds durability and stability underfoot, particularly beneficial when navigating rugged backcountry terrain.
With a moderate tip rocker and a slight tail rocker, the Locator 88 offers enhanced flotation in deeper snow while maintaining plenty of surface contact for stability and grip during technical descents. The Armada Locator 88 Skis are completed with a high-quality sintered base that absorbs wax well for longer-lasting speed and smoother glide. These skis are ideal for serious skiers who need a reliable, responsive, and lightweight option that performs well in all conditions encountered during mountain tours.
