What Armada says about the Reliance 92 Ti
“Big-mountain capability in an all-mountain package.
When you don’t know what the mountain is going to throw your way, reach for the Reliance 92 Ti. With a redesigned construction and a new full Poplar Core, it’s more capable than ever of handling a wide variety of conditions and terrain. Six inches of fresh overnight? It’s ready. Bulletproof groomers? No sweat. The elongated tip rise and taper of the EST ALL MTN Rocker with the full length AR100 Sidewall and Articulated Titanal Banding help the ski track confidently in the firm with enough float for the secret stashes. Any day in any conditions, the Reliance 92 Ti is ready.”
