The read

The ARV 94 is a manufacturer-rated intermediate-to-expert all-mountain freestyle ski built for mixed on- and off-piste terrain. Its 94mm waist sits wider than most all-mountain skis in the catalog, and rocker-camber-rocker shaping aids turn initiation and playful release. The wood-only core without metal keeps it light and lively, suiting skiers who want a nimble, versatile ride across groomers and variable snow.

Specs & what they mean

What the ARV 94's numbers add up to, as a model — the three things that define how it skis.

Turn & shape

A 16.5-meter radius sits in the all-purpose range — turn shapes that shorten up or open out without committing to either; a moderate tip taper keeps turn entry easy while the shovel still engages.

Stability & dampness

Built without metal on a poplar ash wood core, it's lighter and livelier underfoot — easy to release from a turn and quick edge to edge. At 1,720 g it stays light and maneuverable.

Float & width

At 94 mm it's a balanced all-mountain width — real float for soft snow without giving up much hardpack quickness. Rocker at tip and tail lets it smear and release easily, while the camber underfoot keeps an edge.
