I rarely if ever ride switch in part because my board is asymmetric but more so just the high +/+ angles. Maybe I'll give it a go the last day of the year and see what it feels like. Mike |

It can result in needing a wider board to get toe/heel clearance. It does make riding switch a lot more similar. One day of trying it will probably not give you much satisfaction. It takes time to get used to. |

I just feel more stable on the board in a mild duck stance. -- Champ neal at champ dot org dot uk |

I could defnitely see how duck stance would make switch a lot easier but would think it would make angulation more awkward if not impossible? There must be a hard booter lurking who can comment.. they always jump at that word |

There must be a hard booter lurking who can comment.. they always jump at that word There's some guys riding duck who carve pretty good trenches. It's certainly different technique than with hard boot angles. But I haven't been in softies for 20 years so I really don't have any technical basis to compare. Neil |

Neil Well thanks to the 60,70 and yes, 85 degree weather we have had here in the northesat I think any testing will have to wait until next season. I think we may be down to just one very steep bumped run, at most two others and so its not really conducive to experimentation. This has been quite an odd season up here weatherwise. |
