I hear you man, I have last years evo in a 155 too, that is kind of my all around board. I'd get the pickle for jibbing everything in my path and to just kind of play with on those sunny days when it hasn't snowed in a bit. I also have an older SL in a 158 that I can ride pow with so I'm leaning towards the pickle, still not sure though.
Who else is getting new gear this year, post it upppppp
