SNOWBOARDING STANCE WIDTH
Tuesday, August 23rd, 2011
What degree and stance width with should i set the bindings on my snowboard?
I’ve gone snowboarding a couple times and now I’m looking to buy a board and i need to know how to set my bindings. I know everyone is gonna say to do whatever is comfortable but what is an average/normal stance width and degree just so I have a starting point?
You really have to just find a comfortable stance for setting your stance width. There is no formula or correct width.
And for setting your degree of rotation on your bindings, it depends on what style of riding you do. I do mostly freeriding (slopes and backcountry stuff) so I keep my front binding at 17 degrees forward and my rear binding at 2 or 3 degrees forward. However, someone who likes freestyle or park riding will probably have theirs set differently.
