Nitro Alternator vs Public s Dispute

How they compare

The Nitro Alternator has a camber profile (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise), while the Public s Dispute uses hybrid (rocker/camber) (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile). Both are rated 7/10 flex (stiff).
