Faction CT 2.0 vs Al Dente Zero

Greetings,
I'm looking into getting a new pair of Skis for bouncing all over the mountain, I mostly ride park but I also enjoy pow lines and playing around on the slope.
Is anyone rocking one of these skis or has tested them?
I'm really curious how they compare to each other. I've found a bunch of 2.0 reviews but hardly any of the Al Dente Zero / EDollo.
Would you recommend somthing else?
Thanks for your opinions,

We have a Roofbox Review on the Al Dente Zero dropping on Thursday which should give you a lot more info than I can in here.
For me the biggest difference is in the flex. To me the Candide feels like much more of a smooth flex profile tip to tail. It's a sort of medium flex throughout in its latest iteration. The Al Dente is extremely soft at the extremities and comparatively solid in the middle 2/3 of the ski.
The CT2 also feels like more of a fat ski, than the Dente. It's only 4mm wider underfoot but at 135 in the tip and tail with twin rocker, it's far more surfy than the Dente, which despite being soft, feels like quite a precise on snow tool.
They are both really good skis, I don't think you'll be unhappy with either. Check out the Dente review on thursday and hit me up with any more questions you have.
