ive seen the proto of the heritage but havent ridden in yet. It has a decent shape to it. the concave is more pushed out than most wood decks.
ive ridden then 39 revival and was pretty impressed with it compared to past byerly/hyperlite boards. again, the concave is pushed waaay out which isnt my preference, but it still rode well.

I've hadn't the pleasure to ride the new revival YET, but in person it really seems like a step up from its legacy ancestor its much mellower, the concave and kicktails are really less intense, and the edges are real sharp giving it that control but also making edging effortless. One great new thing on it too is the channels are shallower and it really gives it more freedom on the water, i really like the construction and look of the new revival i think it would be a great choice in a board.

good luck with your choice.

is it just a less intense version of the legacy concave? are the concaves different b/t the boards or the same? they look the same, just one wood, one composite.

both are good. i like the revival because it lasts longer. but you cant go wrong with either deck.

the first wood board i got was tnt bamboo and i know that's not full wood. then i got a simplex. the feeling of these boards is so much better than glass. i don't think i want to go back to glass. im trying to decide on a heritage, arson, or 39 tnt. it's so damn tough b/c i don't want to support a corporation like byerly, but i have always supported byerly. someone help me make up my mind.
