I searched for an A-rt thread but couldn’t find one. I threw the canvas in also because although it isn’t an A-rt release, there’s a lot of similarities between the Canvas and A-rt releases. Show me yours 😍😍

420  
Canvas  
Quail  
Life

Hmmm, interesting. I do like the Grail, although I’ve only owned a powder coated one. I think I go to the Life more.

Life, 420, and Quail would be my favorite metals. Woodboy rocks.

Now that’s a collection, dog. Love those.

I know I’m in the minority of not liking the Life very much comparatively. It feels to me like a Grail that was given stability and power at the sacrifice of float, which defeats the purpose of what I enjoy in organics. It plays well though, just not as memorable as the grail to me.

If anyone has a wood a-rt they would like to trade. I will trade in your favor. Prefer a fixed.

I’m definitely an A-RT fan boy. Favorites are the Grail and the 420 Light. I’ve never tried the regular 420.

Try to find one of the lightweight versions, they’re really really good. Once I got mine I sold the regular 420.

I honestly go back and forth between the light and normal version. The light version is so floaty and air feeling, but the normal version really has that thick like butter feeling to it

How does one tell if they have the “light” version? I ask because I recently got one off BST.
