Armada ANTIMATTER 108 Ski Set + Bindings

Designed for advanced to expert skiers,the Armada ANTIMATTER 108 is a freeride and big-mountain ski built for those looking to tackle steep terrain, technical lines, and challenging couloirs at high speeds. With a 108 mm waist width, it offers natural float in powder while maintaining dynamic and responsive handling. Its design combines high-speed stability with surprising responsiveness, making it a serious tool for skiers who refuse to compromise on the mountain.

A freeride profile tailored for challenging terrain

The profile of the Armada ANTIMATTER 108 ski is based on a Rocker/Camber/Rocker geometry: a pronounced rocker at the tip and tail makes it easier to initiate turns in deep snow and improves float off-piste, while the central camber maintains contact with the snow for solid grip and efficient power transfer during the pressure phase. This hybrid profile is particularly well-suited for varied descents where snow conditions change rapidly, from powder to packed snow.

Dimensions and Radius: Designed for big turns

The ANTIMATTER 108’s dimensions are 130/108/121 mm (tip/waist/tail), a generous geometry that promotes floatation on ungroomed snow. The turning radius is intentionally long: 22.0 m at 176 cm, 24.0 m at 184 cm, and 26.0 m at 191 cm. These specifications clearly position the ski for wide, fluid, and well-defined turns—characteristic of big-mountain skiing. This long radius requires real physical commitment and is intended for skiers capable of anticipating their trajectories on steep slopes.

Construction: Stability and Power Transfer at High Speeds

The structure of the Armada ANTIMATTER 108 ski is built on a combination of complementary materials that account for its performance in challenging terrain. Here are the key elements of its construction:

• Poplar Core: a poplar wood core that combines lightness and liveliness, resulting in a responsive ski without adding bulk.
• Speedmetal Titanal Laminate: a layer of laminated titanium that dampens vibrations at high speeds and enhances stability on hard or rough snow.
• AR100 Sidewall: a sidewall construction that improves the transfer of pressure to the edge for precise control.
• S7 Base: a base designed to optimize glide and reduce friction on varied snow conditions.
• All Mountain Edge: an edge profile suited for mixed conditions, with a base angle of 1.3° and a side angle of 87.5° for solid grip on compact snow.

The Armada ANTIMATTER 108 skis are primarily aimed at advanced to expert alpine skiers looking for a reliable tool for wide-open off-piste terrain, technical couloirs, and high-speed descents. Available in 184 cm, it is a solid choice for skiers of medium to large build who want to fully explore freeride and big-mountain terrain without sacrificing responsiveness in varied conditions.
