Its a powerful blank that remains parabolic. Where a lot a strong sticks become useless because they're to stiff, the arra toes the line and comes up big when you NEED big, but is useable in an everyday way.
I know DonM has a 1205 Arra as his conventional go to stick as well

Sooner or later you're going to realize just as I did that there's a difference between knowing the path and walking the path. - Morpheus
