Need some help with Never Summer Evo sizing! - Snowboarding Forum

Hey all,

Need some advice on the NS Evo sizing. I am 5'10" and 145-150 lbs. I wear a size 10 Burton Hail boot (w/ shrinkage tech - somewhat the size of a 9). Would a 153 work for me?

I currently am riding a Sierrascope 152 w/ a waist width of 245mm, Ride RX bindings at 15 degrees front and back, and 10.5 K2 Darko boots (bit too big), and it works out great.

I know the evo is a TEENY bit more narrow at 243.5 mm, but im pretty sure this wont really be an issue give I used a 10.5 darko boot last yr with a 245 waist width. Hope to run Union Forces in a size M/L with it.

Thanks for the help!!!

Also, just wanting some opinions....white or black? Cant decide!

If you ride duck stance i don;t see a problem.

At 150 lbs, you can definitely ride a 153.

1.5mm of waist difference is nothing (less than 1% difference)

If you can't choose a color then get both and name the boards Urim and Thummim

I have Union Forces on a NS Infinity and it's 236mm. I have them at 21 degrees. The footbed hangs over ever so slightly. Probably not 7mm, though.
