Will the Alien 1.0 bushing work on the 3.0?

Better compromise than the standard whippet for my uses: significantly lighter, and less hazardous to leave on the pole the entire trip.

The alpine whippet covers these less severe use cases well. Also a nice confidence booster for newer skiers/skinners when conditions are firm but not really slide-for-life (I'm always concerned about folks hurting themselve...
