Locator 104 2023
Free-touring skis - Unisex -
The Locator 104 is a free-touring ski from Armada designed for backcountry skiing in powder, both up and down.
With a modern shape optimised for exceptional flotation in deep snow and a longer radius for high speeds, this model has a touring oriented construction. Indeed, its light weight combined with its wide waist of 104 mm makes it possible to send it on the descent while also offering good performance when climbing. The rear clip area keeps the skins central and secured.
The AR75 sandwich construction makes the ski lighter without compromising stiffness for good stability at high speed. A titanium plate has been added to the underside of the binding to reduce vibration and provide good cushioning. In addition, the Caruba core provides better climbing feel while retaining power for descents on difficult terrain.
The Locator 104 is aimed at demanding skiers looking for lightness on the way up and good lift and reactivity on the way down to get into every corner of the snowy slopes.
- Sandwich construction with AR75 edges
- Carbon reinforcement to make the ski responsive and dynamic
- Rear clip for automatic centering of skins
- cushioning plate under the bindings
- Lightweight and strong 1.7 mm edges, which improve stiffness without affecting weight

CARUBA CORE:
Carob wood is the lightest wood used by Armada. It allows for effortless climbs, but remains powerful enough to go down slopes at full speed, whatever the type of terrain. This core makes no compromises between performance and lightness.
Le Locator 104 fait parti de la nouvelle gamme freerando d'Armada et c'est un succès. Ses lignes de cotes généreuses vont vous faire survoler la poudreuse. Mais ce n'est pas tout, il y en a sous le pied car il sait rester rigide et stable à grande vitesse sur de belles courbes. Pour les phases de montée, le Locator 104 est allégé mais reste tout de même un peu lourd vu sa taille au patin.
Les plus : Portance, stabilité, réactivité
Les moins : Le poids.
