WIDE STANCE
+ more stability in landings
+ can hold more power
- increased inner side knee injury risk with overwide stance
NARROW STANCE
+ greater maneuverability
+ less resistance in rotations
taller people need a wider stance than shorter people. To find your stance width, jump forward and land in a comfortable squad position.
centred pads
+ more stability in landings (weight lands through centre of board)
- harder to edge heelside with small feet
closer to heelside
+ easier to edge on heels for upwind and jumping
- less stability in landings (weight lands off centre)
- harder to edge toeside
if you suffer pain in shins; move position towards heels for easier edging.
duck footed (wide angle)
+ more maneuverbility in various riding styles (E.g. carving and toeside)
- increased inner side knee injury risk with over ducked stance
parallel stance
+ greater stability in landings
+ less resistance in rotations
if suffering pain at the inside of knee; move angle closer to parallel. Look for your natural foot angle when you squat.
