2020 vapor vs 2021

Hey ballers just wondering if anyone has skied the new 2021 probuild and if they have what differences they have noticed between it and the 2020. I absolutely love my 2020 and was wondering if it would be worth keeping or if I should give the 2021 a shot

I am wondering the same, it looks like BNG and plastic tail.

I really liked my 20. Loved the predictability. and grip. Ran a lot of my hardest pass on it(-35).

The 21 is a little less effort and comes through the backside of the turn easier. Ran my first -38 on the 21.

@rq0013 dude ur first 38!!!!

@6balls yes on the 21. Great set was going to end on a great -35 before the work day and my ski partner told me I couldn’t go to the dock without a -38 try.....ran it.

+1 for the ‘21. I had a hard time with the ‘20, even went back to my ‘19 for a spell. I felt like the balance point was a touch too far forward for me. The ‘21 not only generates more space with less effort, it feels more stable to me.

Never got the 20 to work well for me. Like the 19 better. Rode a 21 a few times and liked it. Just picked up my own 21 for this season. 2020 now for sale.

I have a 2021 in my hands, product quality is top as always, but the new tip and tail look very durable and overall looks like a good idea. Also it is easier to set up dft compared to previous models because the new plastic tail helps you keeping the caliper straight and get repeatable numbers.
Sorry can not personally answer the important question which skis better, but my friend who has skied both says that he likes the 2021 a lot more.
