The Perfect Snowboard Stance: A Guide to Width and Angle Settings

Eager to take on the slopes with your snowboard but uncertain about achieving the ideal stance? Your search ends here! Our snowboard specialist, Jacob, is ready to assist you.

Let's begin by exploring the concept of stance width, which indicates the space between your feet. Finding a width that's neither excessively wide nor too narrow is crucial. Although manufacturers offer reference points for each board, these are not customised for you individually. That's where our guidance proves beneficial!

Determining the Perfect Snowboard Binding Width

Here are three prevalent methods to acquire an initial measurement:

A) Utilise your shoulder width for determining the distance between the bindings.
B) Measure from the soles of your feet up to the top of your knees for the ideal distance.
C) Jump from a chair and record the space between your feet upon landing.

Next is selecting the optimal binding angle, which is a flexible process that evolves as your proficiency enhances and your riding technique develops. Jacob, our expert, suggests some perfect initial angles for beginners and the most prevalent riding methods. However, feel free to experiment and discover what suits you best.
