seems like the evo is being hyped up a whole lot this season. and i'm pretty sure its worth the hype but isn't it the same board as last seasons? how come it wasn't talked about as much last season? i know the slr was talked about a ton last season but it seems like all i'm reading is evo>sl even though they are the exact same boards as last year apart from the graphics. i don't know just an observation...

i think they arent much comparable. Evo is true twin park board with softer flex and slr is more allmountain with stiffer flex than evo and little setback. Btw evo got new core this year , its softer between binding for more playfull feel.
