Description

The Armada Reliance 88 C is a nimble, lightweight all-mountain ski designed for skiers who crave quick edge-to-edge response, energetic carving, and the versatility to handle everything from groomers to light powder. With a responsive Caruba core reinforced by woven carbon stringers, the Reliance 88 C delivers a lively, playful ride that excels in both frontside conditions and off-piste adventures.

:

  • : Armada’s lightest wood core keeps the ski agile and easy to maneuver, while woven carbon stringers add pop, stability, and rebound without extra weight.

  • : Early rise in the tip and a traditionally cambered tail provide smooth turn initiation, reliable edge hold on hardpack, and enhanced float in softer snow.

  • : The 88mm underfoot width offers the ideal balance for skiers who enjoy high edge angles on groomers but want a ski that’s adaptable for bumps, trees, and variable snow.

  • : Full-length sidewalls maximize torsional strength and edge grip, while durable, lightweight edges ensure longevity and confidence in all conditions.

  • : A sintered UHMW polyethylene base with added carbon delivers speed and durability for hard-charging days.

  • : The Reliance 88 C features a moderate flex (tip: 4–7, mid: 5–8, tail: 4–7) for a playful yet stable feel that’s approachable for intermediates and rewarding for advanced skiers.
