Anyone got any numbers for the A-1, 66.25 or 67.5?

Jay,

Did they send you any info on stock set up? I would be interisted in knowing what they are recommending.

The sheet inside the  box only has Monza and System 8 #'s on it. I will measure the fin tonight and let you know where it is at, bottom looks very close to the SS, will find out tonight about that also when I get it home. Flat black paint on the top, easy for touch ups I guess!

Compared the A-1 to the SS bottom, they are pretty much identical till after the rear boot. The A-1 has rounded  edges and the SS stays with the sharp 45 degreeish edges all the way to the tail. Anybody got an idea what the two differences will create?

This A-1 finishes a turn like a monster.........as long as you maintain a slow handle.

What do you mean by "a slow handle"?..do you mean quiet upper body with letting the handle out slowly; then skiing back to the handle.

So the #'s that were on the ski from the factory are:

<p>
2.499 depth
</p>
<p>
6.8745 tips
</p>
<p>
.7615 dft

Buddy of mine may try it tonight, can't seem to pry myself off the RS-1 to try it, will let you know his thoughts tommorow.

That is way off the Monza #s, so they must have really changed things around.

<p>
I'm running my animal boots one hole back
</p>
<p>
I added a little fin length, much better
</p>
<p>
Ham is correct, the A1 can really turn

I let a friend try it yesterday. He couldn't turn it. I am not sure how well Goode skiers will like it. He skis too far back to initiate a turn on it. It has a huge sweet spot, but it isn't on the tail.
