					<description><![CDATA[I used to be a fan of stiffer boards, definitely spent more time riding them and this year I&#039;ve found myself liking the more fun, softer flex boards.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At Bataleon, they mentioned the riot would break in after some riding.  It was really brand new when I rode it, which explains a lot.  The kevlar made it stiffer than when I last rode it.  The flowers were funny, I wasn&#039;t expecting that graphic on the riot at all, haha.  Comparing it to evil twin, evil twin would be park and riot I&#039;d ride everywhere.  The riot really handled the whole mountain, and I was riding it at Whistler from sheet ice, to hardpacked in spots.  It did better than the evil twin on outside of the park riding.  Evil twin was jus a bit more playful, easier to press and butter for me.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I haven&#039;t heard that about Omatic&#039;s.  I have a friend Steve who picked up his Omatic Wiig and loves it, it&#039;s lasted him 2 years so far and now he&#039;s about to pick up another Omatic because it was really happy with it and his riding is all mountain is a park riding.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yeah with size 12&#039;s could be close, try the revolver over the evo then.  Any reason you aren&#039;t looking at wide boards, don&#039;t want you to have issues with toe drag.  At least the demos will help out.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Yeah, from what I&#039;ve read in your reviews you definitly like soft boards more. I guess what you felt was the kevlar enhancement they added like 1 or 2 years ago which should give the board more pop. This of course also stiffens the board up. But imo this board, just like any other board, will have a break in time and after that it will get a bit softer. I&#039;ve also read that in reviews of the 09 version and I didn&#039;t hear they changed something in this years edition. I also think you got a pretty brand new board because most people are distracted by the flower design which could explain why it was hard to flex. Also I&#039;d be interested how you compare it to next years Bataleon Evil Twin(which is a bit softer and doesn&#039;t have the kevlar enhancement), Omatic Awesome or Omatic Extr-Eco. I got a bit distracted off Omatic after I heard that their boards lose their pop pretty fast and get noodley, of which I&#039;ve never read in any reviews. Maybe that is because testing many boards can&#039;t get along with doing a long term test on each. Any other fun rockered boards I should try out for next year? (Not so into Burton because I want to use Salomon binders for my F22)&lt;br /&gt;So far I have the Bataleon ET/Riot/Airobic, Omatic Awesome/Extr-Eco, Signal Park/Omni, Capita Horrorscope, Gnu Park Pickle on my to-demo list... Any additions?&lt;br /&gt;Greetings,&lt;br /&gt;Phil]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Anonymous.  It&#039;s definitely coming up.  To be honest, I thought the Riot that I rode a couple years ago was more fun...they stiffened it up since I rode it last but it was still solid but I liked the more fun, softer flex version.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Allie!  Thanks!  You are damn cool yourself!  It was awesome to ride with you and meet up!  I am emailing you more of the photos including some of Jay riding and Allan to give them.  I figured I&#039;d get shots of you since as the one behind the camera, it&#039;s harder to get them...so glad you like them!  Can&#039;t wait to see your post and sorry my riding wasn&#039;t crazy, haha]]></description>
