Float through the deepest days on the Whitewalker 116 Skis
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I've taken the Whitewalker 116 into some of the deepest snow I've skied all season and they stay playful without ever feeling unstable at speed. The Smear Tech tip and tail make butters and spins feel natural, and the float in powder is honestly kind of ridiculous for how light these are."
We drop into a line still untouched from the overnight storm, and this is exactly where the Armada Whitewalker 116 Skis come alive. Built for skiers whose idea of a good day involves steep faces and bottomless snow, these skis handle the kind of terrain most people only watch in ski films, then turn around and work just as well as a deep snow touring setup when the approach calls for it.
That versatility comes down to a Caruba wood core that keeps the ski light for its width, paired with a freeride rocker profile that adds extra tip and tail lift for variable snow. The Smear Tech beveled base lets the tips and tails slide rather than catch, whether you're spinning off a cliff or busting through crud, and the sintered carbon base keeps things fast across long traverses between pow stashes.

What Skiing Will Become
Founded in the 2000s, Armada was created by a generation of skiers who wanted to redefine the sport. Two decades later, Armada still builds products that reflect the freedom and fun of modern skiing.

Phantom Glide By DPS Skis
This ski is compatible with Phantom Glide, the long-lasting base treatment from DPS Skis. Backcountry technicians apply and UV-cure it before the skis ship, so they arrive ready to ride with no waxing needed.
How It Works

Applied By Backcountry Techs
Backcountry technicians treat and UV-cure every pair in the shop before it leaves the warehouse, so the skis arrive ready to ride with no setup required.

Glide That Outlasts Wax
Wax sits on top of the base and wears off in a few days. Phantom Glide bonds into the base, so glide stays fast and consistent from cold powder to spring slush.

No More Wax Days
Phantom Glide replaces scraping, ironing, and shop visits with a quick base cleaning using the Phantom Glide Base Care Kit. The formula is made without PFAS.

Mounted And Ready To Go
When skis, bindings, and boots are purchased together, a Gearhead Expert mounts the bindings before the order ships.
