Alpha Omega, better known as AO, is under the same umbrella as ELYTS, 841, and Raptor. AO so far has released information on their one piece deck and fork. We recently got sent all the information you need to know about both of them. For more information see the press release sent to us by AO earlier today.
"AO scooters are the first decks specifically designed for street. The key innovation of the deck is a removable grind plate (soul frame) which is made out of a super tough plastic material which not only protects your deck but enables you to effortlessly grind anything: unwaxed curbs, concrete and stone ledges, wood and it even gives you more control on metal rails.
As athletes in other action sports already know there is something about grinding and the soul frame opens a whole new dimension in scootering. Now you don’t depend on your mom to drive you to a skate park: You can ride your scooter right in front of your door steps – anytime, anywhere."
AO SIGMA
The AO Sigma deck is made of re-heat treated 6016 T6 aluminum and comes with stainless steel flex brake (rounded so your wheels won't get flat), 8 mm high tensile Chromoly axle bolts and a grind plate made of super tough Nylon material.
At only 3.6 lbs. (including soul frame) the Sigma is still among the lighter scooters on the market and allows you to do any tricks you've been used to do.
Features:
- Deck in re-heat treated 6016 T6 aluminum
- Length: 19.5”, width: 4 ¼”,
- Weight: 3.6 lbs. incl. grind plate (1.5 kg)
- Super tough grind plate
- Flat bottom
- Rounded, stainless steel flex brake (2 mm)
- 8 mm high tensile Chromoly axle bolt
- Head tube angle 82.5
AO Fork Sigma
The Sigma fork is a 1-piece compression fork which goes perfectly with the Sigma deck. It is forged which means it is pressed from a block of aluminum under 5 tons of pressure. This process re-aligns the molecules and makes the so dense that it is 2.5 times stronger than regular machined aluminum.
Features:
- 1-piece forge fork
- compression system
- 8 mm high tensile Chromoly axle bolt
- 10 mm offset

YOU people are the ones that make the sport look bad. Your disrespecting people who help make this sport progress. Zig is a smart guy. Maybe he talks a little diffrent than you and me? But seriously? Let him do his thing..
ReplyDeletescoot scoot bang bang flair off his dick stop hating cause he Isnt stoping anytime soon. It's not a cheater deck it's an innovation to scooters. Because it started off completely metal doesn't mean it has to stay that way. Soul plate is smooth if you don't like it don't ride it. - Thomas brown
ReplyDeleteI wonder if Andy sits back and reads these and is like "God dammit..why did I choose Zig" bahah
ReplyDeleteDeck looks tight though. Not sure on the grind plate thing.. Pretty sure any rider can strap plastic to the bottom of their decks.
No ao bars?
ReplyDeleteJust like to say in one of these AO videos zig does a whip to 'bonk' rewind shit and the grind plate busts off a chunk. when it hits. I can see people going threw these plates like no other.
ReplyDeleteSaw that. Totally agree with you.
Deletein the europe tour part 2, at 1:48, the plastic part breaks off... also that is the gayest way to introduce yourself zig. how can you live with yourself while talking like such an idiot?
ReplyDeleterollerbladerz makn' scooters now?
