I rode these RVL8 Tansho’s 90cm the second half of a skiboard day after riding the RVL8 Revolts 105cm. I am used to riding Canon M7’s 99cm this was my first day out RVL8 boards, but as soon as I was strapped in on the Tansho’s I felt like ‘I was home’… they felt very natural and comfortable and I felt like I had my good ole M7’s on again! So, how did they ride? Perfectly. I was impressed! Better than my M7’s and they were FAST & STABLE & yes VERY maneuverable! They are very underrated! No they are not as fast as the RVL8 Revolt’s, but not by much!
The Tansho’s surpassed my expectations and I am glad I bought them, plus the graphics are awesome! They will be great for any day riding; fresh powder might be a little tricky but just keep leaning back. I am 5’4″ (ride only non release bindings)and the RVL8 Tansho’s 90cm compared to my old Canon M7 99cm is by far better and faster and great all around with a skate like feel and great maneuverability. Comparing the Tansho’s to the Revolt’s, for me I preferred the Tansho’s, but give me another full day of riding the Revolt’s and they will be fine.
