    What Princess said but

    Front +21 Back - 12

    And my Rossi Zena is a directional but my Feelgood ES is twin (well it's the same board).
    Regret for the things we did can be tempered by time; it is regret for the things we did not do that is inconsolable.

    I've finally decided on a stance that works for me.

    I hit everything, med jumps to rails to deep POW
    Ride Hazok 156 (all mountain)
    Stance 22"
    Fairly ballanced, I move it back about 1" if I know i'm doing a day in deep pow.
    Front 18deg / rear 12deg

    One of the most important questions should have been how many have bothered to rotate the high backs so they are closer to parallel with the heel side edge, and even more importantly how many have adjusted the high back forward lean so it stays in contact with your boot when your knees are well bent as they should be in a heel side turn, more than 50% of riders haven't and it certainly shows in their riding style.
