What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:"I keep coming back to the ARV 106 because it hits the sweet spot for everyday freeride. It’s wide enough to float on storm days but still holds an edge on groomers. The poplar core feels smooth and predictable, and the w3Dgewall sidewalls are seriously tough. It’s basically the one ski I can trust to do everything."Who It’s ForIntermediate to Advanced All-Mountain Freestyle Skiers:The ARV 106 is built for skiers who want a playful ski that thrives in mixed conditions.
