2024 Armada Locator 112 Skis - NEW

The 2024 Armada Locator 112 is a lightweight, powder-focused freeride touring ski built for advanced and expert skiers who want serious flotation without hauling unnecessary weight uphill. At 112 mm underfoot, the Locator 112 is the widest ski in the Locator family, providing the surface area and rocker needed to stay on top of deep snow while maintaining a responsive, maneuverable feel on the descent.

A lightweight Caruba wood core helps keep weight down for the skin track, while the directional shape and backcountry-focused construction prioritize downhill performance when it's time to enjoy the turns you earned. For powder tours, storm days, backcountry bowls, and deep tree skiing, the Locator 112 is designed to make the most of soft snow.

Performance

The Locator 112 is built around one priority: making backcountry powder days as rewarding as possible. Its 112 mm platform and substantial rocker provide excellent flotation in deep snow, allowing the skis to plane easily and produce a smooth, surf-inspired ride.

Despite its width, the lightweight construction keeps the Locator 112 manageable on long approaches and repeated climbs. Once pointed downhill, its directional shape provides the stability needed to ski aggressively through open terrain while remaining maneuverable enough for trees and technical lines.

Compared with narrower touring skis, the Locator 112 prioritizes flotation and downhill performance over maximum uphill efficiency. For advanced and expert skiers building a powder-specific touring setup or looking for a lightweight freeride ski for deep days, the Locator 112 is an excellent choice.
