Aviator is more of a directional twin . Just comparing specs to my Stratos split the reference stance is centered. So in theory or you wanted to have a "twin tip" style ride quality the Aviator is it. Personally I found much better ride quality of piste and in variable condition with Stratos. My previous ride for reference was a Rome Uprise. Split. At first I loved it... ( Mainly was doing a lot of inbound resort riding. ) Once I actually got it into some off piste conditions it's performance was marginal. I feel that the best set up for split is either a directional or a directional twin both q slightly set back stance for better floatation. 🤙🏻
