      Thanks, but that pic doesn't show much. It's a nice side shot. Are the sidewalls blue? They look blue.

      How do you like the ALPs?

              Mark,

              How do they compare with the Spruce 120s? I’ll be trying the ALPs out this Friday I hope. And I’m hoping they will have the stability of the Spruces but be a bit more maneuverable for me than the longer 120s.

                  Matthies , I have both ,although the older softer model of the Alp 110 , I think the Spruce and the 110 are very similar in feel with the 110 being more manuverable , yet still very stable ., the 120 is more stable front to back in choppy terrain .. let us know what you think ..
                  Boards :
                  Blunt Xl, DLP, Spliff, Condor, Rockered Condor , Slingshot, Sherpa, Icelantic Shaman

                  K2 BFC 100 Grip walk sole , Dynafit CR Radical AT boot, Ride Insano Snowboard boots

                    Ditto for me. The newer Alp has better edge grip than the Spruce on hardpack. Prepare yourself for a good time.

                      I have both. Cant agree with the edge grip comment though, but hey, both great boards. The 110 is maybe a bit more tiring to ride.
                      Crossbow (go to dream board)
                      Most everything else over time.

                        Thanks to you two for posting pics. They are damn sweet looking. They'd go great with my blue and yellow boots.

                        I thought I had decided not to buy a pair of ALPs, but now everyone's comments have me thinking about it again.

                            Awesome Matthies,
                            Mine should be here Tuesday according to UPS, I hate waiting on that brown truck, I'm used to it though, they get a lot of my business every year when race season starts...

                              Yea I hate waiting for UPS, I have to be around though because I live in downtown Denver, packages left by them on my front porch don’t last too long. Have you seen the CO thread in the Meet up section, there is another guy here from the springs. As soon as my friend wakes up I’m off to try the ALPs!
