Armada Zero Short Pants Skis 2024

For advanced skiers who prefer a 168 or 176 cm ski but still want a supportive freeride build.

The design serves smaller-framed riders seeking stability and flotation without moving to a longer ski.

Designed for big-mountain terrain and powder, the Short Pants Paradox combines a rockered forebody with camber underfoot.

Its wide shape and 21.5 m sidecut radius suit flowing turns and open terrain.

• Soft-snow support: The wide waist and tapered, rockered tip promote flotation.
• Directional control: Camber and a supportive tail provide a platform for driving turns.
• Smooth release: Smear Tech tail shaping helps reduce catching in variable snow.

• Caruba Core: A lightweight wood core balances weight savings with damping.
• AR100 Sidewall: Full sidewalls support edge grip and power transmission.
• Smear Tech Tail: A three-dimensional bevel helps the tail move through softer snow.
• Comp Series Base: A carbon-enhanced sintered base supports glide.
• 2.1 All-Mountain Edge: Heat-treated edges balance durability with feel.
