haha, they are so different is absurd. Please go back to the person who told you that and them they are an idiot. I have skied both for about a month. FS are super soft, good for buttering, not great pop and lose structure integrity quickly (in my opinion). ar5s are a great all around ski. Firm, good on hard pack. ONly downside to ar5s are construction of last years, but it appears they are fixing that

Not that you can tell a whole lot about skis by flexing them in the shop, but when i flexed both a did notice a difference. In fact the guy that told me worked at the shop. Looked like a real stiff though, probabyl never rode a twin in his life.

only thing is the same is that they both have sidewall construction, and they have rounded tips.
