Boot size 11.5 need help choosing between Evo and Revolver

Posted: 09 September 2011 04:01 PM

I’m having trouble deciding which board would work in terms of width.  I’m 6’1”, 182lbs, and boot size 11.5.  I’m pretty much set on a dedicate park board either the Evo or Revolver from NS.  The problem is that Evo 154 is 25.1cm wide and the Revolver 155 is 26.1cm.  Would I be dragging my toes on the Evo?  I want a shorter board for park riding.  I don’t have a local place to try before buying so it has to be right from the get-go.  Many thanks for comments/suggestions.

With a size 11.5 boot, I’d go with the Revolver.  I’m 6’ 2” 180lbs with a size 13 and I rode the 158 Revolver that has a waist of 26.4 and it was perfect.  My angles were +12/-12.

Thank you.  Just got the Revolver 155.  Can’t wait to try it out.

It’s a fun board, very poppy and playful in the park, but also rides powder very well for a twin.
