Help! Bataleon: can’t choose

Posted: 04 November 2011 12:11 AM

Hello! Please help me! I have to buy a new board, because my snowboard K2 Airdu was stolen last april. I would like a board that’s more forgiving than the airdu, so they adviced me a bataleon. I like the TBT, but I cannot choose between the distortia and the violenza and read somewhere that a female rider bought a evil twin and liked it a lot. I tried the feelbetter and found it way to soft. The violenza is stiffer but has no twin. Didn’t try the distortia, they say it has in nose and tale the same flex as the violenza and in the middle the same as the feelbetter, but i’m wondering how it is just cruising on high speed? The evil twin is a men board, but i like that it is stiffer than the distortia and still a park board, and a twin.
I think I ride 10% in the park, and then only hit jumps, i do no rails, and i like just jibbing around all mountain. I’m 1.72m (don’t know how many feet that is? I’m Dutch and we don’t use that:) i’m about 60 kg and my shoe size is 40 (europe, i think 6,5 england and 9 US).
Can someone please give me some advice about choosing between this three boards? Especially if a girl can ride a mens snowboard? And if not, the distortia or violenza?
Oh and Im an advanced rider.:)
Thanks!
