^no he doesn't need that. He is asking the general opinion of ns, not which ski he should get. OP, I have ridden the thall, I really liked it. It's just a solid all around park ski. I really want to ski the alpha 1 or halo (basically the same). I really like rocker and I liked the K2 domains, so I might end up getting a pair of those next year. Armadas are just really good skis in general, you would be pleased either way

What is the weight of the alpha 1 and thall? are they heavy? I hope they're not, cuz i like light skis =D everything seems perfect about the thall, just hope they're not too heavy. (i couldn't find their wight anywhere)... I might buy the thall, cuz my afterbangs are waaay to heavy!

The alpha 1s are very light and the thalls are light as well.
