Yeah, I agree with movin both bindings in together!!!!! Like skip said, ya might notice anythin by just movin one but you would think that it will change the way the board was meant yo ride!!!!!

As for ya angles, just use what ya normally ride, that way ya can see how the new board feels as compared to your old one!!!!! Plus those angles sound spot on for the type of ridin that ya do!!!!!

Got a question about stance so I normally ride about 20-21 width, +15 to 18 front , -5 to -8 back but the thing is if my ref points are 22in apart do you guys recommend I bring both feet in about .5-.75 in or should I just bring the front foot back 1-1.5 in to get my desired stance width, I have burton custom which is a directional board so I'm just wondering I know of I bring the front back I will get better float in powder but is there any downside to it?

I do mostly freeride but still mess around sometime riding switch but not that often, mostly do high speed carving, jumps any suggestion on stance width and angles would also be great appreciated

Does your Custom have the channel or 3D hole pattern?

After riding on Saturday, I'm gonna bring my stance in to 20.5 inch from 21 inches. For some reason, 21 inches seems just a little wide even though that's what I ride all last season, weird.

Could also be just getting used to riding again skip - few months off and some of the muscles may not have the flexibility that you had at the end of last season.

Yeah probably. Tried a friend's board but he rides a 22", I almost couldn't turn and my quads were on fire after just a few minutes. I wonder how I used to ride 22.5" for a few days last season lol. Just strapping in at home, 20.5" felt really nice.
