New board beginner / intermediate

Finally got a chance to try out my board at perisher last weekend and it is awesome!!! So much better than the rentals i have been using, much lighter and more flexible. I felt as though i was riding much better and more confident.

Think i need to adjust my binding stance a bit as i was getting some pain down the left side of my shin on the front foot when going down some of the longer runs. Might try and increase the front angle to about 18 and see if it is any better for next time I’m down.

Anyways thank you to all that helped point me in the right direction when selecting my new gear I’m absolutely stoked with my 1st snowboard purchase :D
