Revos, and evos, and razers, Oh MY!

[aviator]

ha what a title :guns:

yea well anyway I was looking around at these heads and found that they are very similar, at first I was leaning twords the revo pro, but now I am not sure

what are some pros/cons/differences of these 3 and there pro versions and there 2.0 versions

ugh

[SilverZeppelin]

the evo is lighter than the revo but less stiff, and the razer is in the middle

[aviator]

same goes for the pros and 2.0s ?

and is the evo like flexier than a truth? cuz I love my truth but its getting way to flexy and gbs are a pain with it now

[Riot]

Evos (all of them) are lighter than the revos (all of them), but the revos are stiffer. Evo 2.0s have the same pinch as Revo 2.0s, Evos have the same pinch as Revos, same with evo pro and revo pro. Basically, if you don't mind the added weight, revos are stiffer evos.
Pros are the most pinched, 2.0s pinch are just barely tighter than the original's, except for the throat, which is much more pinched. The originals are the least pinched.

Razers are in the middle.

[CSlax06]

The Evo is alot stiffer than a truth.

so what would you reccomend for an attackman, I'm kinda thinking evo now, but stil like how the revo is durable and all

I would suggest going with an evo 2.0. It still has a tight pinch, but not tight enough that you will have to worry about it warping, which was a huge problem for the evo pro. It is also extremely light and very very stiff, and not just for a light head. It really is a great head.

alrite thanks alot
I'm gonna have to decide on the pro vs 2.0 thing but I am pretty sure on a evo right now

Ok.

Evo Pros:
- More pinched.
- Heavier.
- Known for having problems with lip.
- Known for having problems with warping.

Evo 2.0:
- A little bit less pinched.
- Lighter.
- Stiffer

Basically, if you don't need the extra pinch I would go with a 2.0. Then again, I don't own either, I'm just posting from my experiences stringing them and using them in my backyard. You might want to get other people's opinions too.

the razer is known for its flared sidewall and it is a tall head and the widest of the 3...the evo and razer are most commonly used for offense while the revo is used for defense usually...the evo or revo are both very stiff while the razer is flimsy and can be known to break...its your call but hope this helps

[aviator]

how much lighter and stiffer is the 2.0, because I am digging the pinch alot more on the pro


Going with evo now though

I think the evo pro is around 5.2 ounces (?) and 2.0 is 4.5 (?), but I'm not entirely sure. The pro's pinch works against it sometimes, because it warps very easily.

[laxplayer93]

The evo 2.0 is only 4.5 ounces. I'm not sure about the pro. the revo is more for defenceive players. I have an evo 2.0 and love it because it isn't near as pinched as the evo pro. It is really light, easy to catch with, and has great accuracy. Get it strung up with hard mesh and its perfect!!!

[aviator]

I string my sticks myself with 6,7, or10 but in pictures the pinch looks alot different, and I am used to tight sticks, but is it really that different (from pro/2.0 users)

[Jephman]

Since you're an attackman, I suggest an Evo Pro. It is a great head, but it tends to warp fast. If you like the flare of the Razers, get a Pro or Pro 2.0. They don't warp as fast, and are nice aswell.

Not really, unless you like very high pockets.

[aviator]

so the pinches are that close

I think I'll get the 2.0

[justlaxin484]

well having owned a razer, revo, evo pro and evo 2.0 and having used the revo pro on numerous occasions, i would definetly go with the evo 2.0. i picked one up a couple weeks ago and have used it in a couple games and it is absolutley incredible. its way lighter than the pro and original series, has the perfect pinch, no lip problems of the pro series...and its moderalty priced. my coach picked up my stick last night and first thing he said was "whoa nice stick"...and then proceeded to talk to me. you cant go wrong with the evo 2.0

[tkdlaxer]

I dont think you can go wrong with any of the new 2.0 Series heads, Evo Revo or Razer, personally though, I'm using a Razer Pro right now, and if anything happened to it, I'll replace it with either another Razer pro, or a 2.0 series head.

[Gannonthecannon]

im in the same boat as tkdlaxer, i also am running a razor pro right now, and if i happen to break it (hopefully soon) id replace it with one of the 2.0 series were they fixed the horrible scoop on the razor pro

[MACDADDY]

i own the evo 2.0 and its nice. its light, and kinda pinches up top, but is EXTREMELY pinched down bottom, to the point where it is illegal if you use sidewall ast the bottom string. the offset is good, its looks like a mix between brine's oringinal offset, and warriors, but its leaning towards warriors.
everyone is saying how it will be legal for 2009. well im not so sure about that. the rules say it must be 6.5 at the wides point on both sides (correct me if im wrong), my evo 2.0 is 6.6 in the front, and 6.3 in the back.
overall, its a good head. you cant go wrong with it.
