Ive got the never summer evo and the lib tech skate banana on my mind and i need to know which one i should buy! im in the park most of the time but i do a little of everything. powder is also one of my favorite things to do. i really dont like ice so i dont ride that to much. i want a board with softer flex but wont be a noodle. and i do everything in the park. so rails to jumps, never tried halfpipe but it sounds fun. soooo yeah which board should i get?

THey do the Evo in Monochrome… nice!

Yeah the Evo is a bit more versatile than the skate banana, perticularly when you want to turn ip the speed or need stability and a tail to keep you on your feet if your weight creeps back in the pipe.

And i was thinking the 153 size because im 5’8 and 130 lbs and ride 9.5 size boots but wat do u think. the other similar sizes are 151 and 155 and 149 i think, but my guess is that 153 is best.

153 would be the right length for sure, I’m just thinking about your foot size as it’s only 24.4cm at the waist. Is that a US9.5 boot size?
