For an all mountain board that does it all - go with the reverse crew.
If you want a more park board - go with the stunt. |

In my experience, the stunt will be noticeably softer, easier to jib with, comparable to a burton blunt. The crew will be a little stiffer, but still very good for the park, as well as almost everything else. Itll be comparable to the burton custom.

I got both and would go with the RC hands down. It is a lot better all around board. It can do everything well but nothing awesome. But I haven't found a board that does everything awesome (I don't believe it exists)
I would only get the stunt if you plan on just lapping the park then it is the better choice.

Well it sounds like you like riding the park more. If thats the case I would go with the stunt cause its a true twin and soft.

I have experience riding both these boards.
As most have already said above, get the Stunt if you're wanting to progress more in the park. It's much softer with good pop and great for presses. True twin is great for riding switch. If you want an all mountain deck that you can take on various trips with confidence, get the R.Crew. It's stiffer with a directional flex, still twin shape for easy switch riding just not as nice as the Stunt. Can still handle the park. FWIW, I had the R.Crew first... then I bought the Stunt because it was just too good of a deal at the time. I then came across a Burton Vapor and thus decided to sell the R.Crew to help fund for it. This allowed me to have two ends of the spectrum. So what I'm trying to say is, if you plan on having one board for a long time, then the R.Crew is the better choice for being more well rounded. If you plan on purchasing another deck in the future for outside the park, then go with the Stunt. Personally, if I had just one season on a Lamar and looking to buy new gear, I'd go with whichever one costs less and take that money you're saving and spend it on more days on the hill.
