The ARV 88 is built on a snappy poplar chassis that delivers maximum pop and edge hold so you can carve hard and send it deep with lightweight stability all over the mountain. A touch of tip and tail rocker adds variable condition versatility to the package.
AR FREESTYLE ROCKER
Rockered tips and tails are combined with positive camber underfoot allowing the ski to float and track through deep, variable snow while maintaining solid edge hold in firmer conditions.
POPLAR CORE
The 100% Poplar Core delivers stability, power, and pop for predictable response without excess weight.
ASH BINDING INSERT
Hardwood binding insert provides superior screw retention.
2.5 IMPACT EDGE
Oversized and specially heat treated, this edge is supremely durable and built to resist impact damage.
S7 BASE
A sintered base optimized for speed, durability and wax retention.
W3DGEWALL
The w3Dgewall is a 3D molded, injected sidewall that’s angled where it joins the wood core. During ski construction, this creates a mechanical bond in the mold and a more uniform connection between the sidewall and core. With more material in strategic areas and a three-dimensional taper in the tip and tail, the w3Dgewall balances ideal performance characteristcs with reduced weights.
