The read

A frontside all-mountain ski with a narrower waist than most in its category, the Arcade 80 is built for on-piste and groomed terrain across the full resort. Its poplar wood core, tip-and-tail rocker, and notably light weight make it quick edge-to-edge and easy to flex, with a very short-radius sidecut that favors tight, nimble turns. The manufacturer describes it for beginner and intermediate skiers who want agile, confidence-building performance on groomed snow.

Specs & what they mean

What the Arcade 80 Skis's numbers add up to, as a model — the three things that define how it skis.

Turn & shape

A short 11.0-meter radius with a wide, tapered tip makes for quick, easily-pivoted turns — it hooks into a turn fast and releases it just as readily.

Stability & dampness

Built without metal on a poplar pefc wood core, it's lighter and livelier underfoot — easy to release from a turn and quick edge to edge. At 1,400 g it's a genuinely light ski, nimble and easy to move around.

Float & width

At 80 mm it's an all-rounder leaning toward firm snow — enough width for soft conditions, still quick on edge. Rocker at tip and tail lets it smear and release easily, while the camber underfoot keeps an edge.
