Three skis that fill it
- 1 · Powder day
Impression, not the real top sheet. Armada ARV 116 JJ UL
116 mm · 175 cm · gap fill 0.85
Close- 116 mm underfoot against 95 mm for your Folsom Hayden: wider, so it floats and smears where yours would sink.
- Adds soft snow and powder, which your skis do not cover.
- Softer than what you own, for days you want an easier ski.
- Rocker-camber-rocker profile, which your quiver does not have.
- You are close to ready for it: it will ask a little more of you than you give today.
- 2 · Powder day
Impression, not the real top sheet. Armada WHITEWALKER 121
121 mm · 183 cm · gap fill 0.85
Close- 121 mm underfoot against 95 mm for your Folsom Hayden: wider, so it floats and smears where yours would sink.
- Adds soft snow and powder, which your skis do not cover.

- Rocker-camber-rocker profile, which your quiver does not have.
