2012 Evo IQ

Hi,

does the Evo IQs from 2011 and 2012 are different? What bordsize (71 or 76 liters) do you recommand for a rider of 72-75 KG? I will sail mostly on the canary islands (tenerife an gran canaria) an at the northsea in netherlands.
Aloha,
Mike

Yeah. For sure they're different.
This years evo is much easier to transition from rail to rail, with an overall looser sensation when waveriding
Still short wide and compact for ease of sailing but with a performance edge.
At 72-75 kg's I'd be going the 71 for sure.Especially with a lot of time spent in the canaries.
Cheers
Scotty

German surf-magazine tested the new Evo IQ and they said, it isn´t planning very well and doesn´t hold speed in wind gabs very well. What do you think or what are your experiences? ? They tested the big one with 86 Liters. What kind of planning ability can I expect in the 71 liter modell compared to my Fanatic Twin 72 from 2009?
