Im considering either this or the Never Summer Revolver. Which one should I get? Ive read a lot of reviews about this board. I have size 12-13 feet. Im 5'11 and weigh 160lbs. If i buy this, should i get the 156 or the 159. Will I have a lot of toe/heel drag? I stick to park but hit the groomers here and then. I have a 160 and kind of wanted a shorter board. THANKS!

lib tech's are sweet but they are not as durable as one would hope...ive seen plenty of these come into the shop with some dings around where the effective edge and board side wall meet...not to say other boards are bomb-proof but to some extend the revolver will suffice more so than the banana... but... id wait and see what next year's graphic will be for the revolver (its SWEET)
