Stephen: This ski is all business. It's like the Tracer's older brother who got it together right out of high school. It absolutely handled everything like a champ. If I needed a ski that was strictly for days that I spend chasing some of the expert members of the Pugski team, this could be it. The problem is, all work and no play makes Invictus a dull ski for me. I thought it was a great ski, just not one for me.

Insider tip: Don’t let Armada’s chill vibe fool you into thinking it doesn’t make some serious skis.​

Drahtguy Kevin: The Invictus likes to run but does have a top end. The ski felt stable on and off piste and especially liked carving and bumps. Armada did a fantastic job prepping their offerings.

Insider tip: Skied true to size.​
Ron: The Invictus 99Ti is a fun ski when not driven too hard; the tip is a little soft and gets pushed around somewhat in leftover ankle-high, cut-up snow. On the groomed it is very good when skied centered and the tips aren't pressured. A solid ski, it's damp but not powerful, with decent edge-to-edge speed, and it drifts well: it can hold a carved turn but is just as fine breaking the tails as needed. It lacks good snow feel, but that's a minor gripe.

Insider tip: Armada ain't just for parks, folks!​
 
Who is it for?
Skiers looking to fill the ~100mm spot in their quiver with an easy-to-ski arrow. Intermediates and advanced intermediates who are on the lighter side or don't ski very hard. Many 60/40 skiers will really enjoy this one.
Who is it not for?
Bigger skiers looking to ski fast. Hard chargers or bigger folks.
