supposedly alpha 2s are almost the same ski as the alpha one except with a more durable base as compared to a faster one on the alpha one as well as being a bit softer.

I talked to a guy who was sponsored by armada and he said the alpha2 is a little softer and will be cheaper.

Just because it's a race base doesn't mean it's not durable. And the Alpha 2 is a bit softer and has the same base as the AR6.

It's like if the AR6 and the Alpha 1 fucked and had a baby, and then that baby had another baby, then this would be that baby!

i created an analogy for this.

the Alpha 2 is to AR6 as the Alpha 1 is to Pipe Cleaner

the Alpha 2 is to the Alpha 1 as the AR6 is to the Pipe Cleaner
