Product details

The Armada Stranger 100 is a genuinely different kind of all-mountain ski, built for skiers who want to carve hard one run and butter side hits the next — perfect for railing Silver Star's groomed cruisers or getting playful in Big White's terrain features. A tight 15.2–15.8m turn radius and directional rocker profile give it surprising carving precision for a twin tip, while the Edgeless Tip and Springboard Tail keep things loose and forgiving when you want to mess around.

   
KEY FEATURES

Poplar-Ash core blending poplar's snap with ash's durable density for a lively, poppy feel

Directional AR Freestyle Rocker (Rocker/Camber/Rocker) profile for hook-free performance in variable snow

Springboard Tail engineered for maximum energy rebound on presses and side hits

Edgeless Tip reduces swing weight and enables catch-free buttering and switch riding

AR75 Sidewall (75% coverage) saves weight in the tip and tail without sacrificing rigidity

2.5mm Impact Edges, oversized and heat-treated for durability against rails and rough terrain

WHO IS THIS FOR

The Stranger 100 is built for intermediate-to-advanced skiers who want one ski that can rail groomers at Silver Star and still get weird — buttering, spinning, and slashing side hits at Big White. It's not a dedicated carving ski or a park ski, but a genuine hybrid for skiers who like to freestyle their way down the whole mountain. Our team at Fresh Air will help you find the right ski and size in-store at both Kelowna locations. Stop by to talk with one of our experienced staff members, or call 250-763-3425.

FAQ

What makes the Armada Stranger 100 different from a typical all-mountain ski?
Most 100mm all-mountain skis have a medium-to-long turn radius for stability. The Stranger 100 pairs its width with a short 15.2–15.8m radius, a Springboard Tail, and an Edgeless Tip, so it carves tighter and butters more freely than a standard all-mountain shape.

Is the Edgeless Tip on the Stranger 100 durable enough for everyday skiing?
Yes. The Edgeless Tip removes metal edge from the tip specifically to reduce swing weight and prevent catching during butters and presses, while the rest of the ski still runs a full 2.5mm Impact Edge for durability where you actually need edge hold.

Does the Stranger 100's short turn radius make it good for carving on groomers?
Yes, that tight radius is what lets it rail shorter, quicker arcs on hardpack better than most twin tips its width — it's part of why the ski earned a reputation as a genuine carver despite its freestyle-oriented shape.
