"WHATS YOUR STANCE?"
 
   I am switching from a +15, 0 to a +15, -15 this year. What stance do you guys ride, and why? I need some more knowledge in this area...Thanks:

   i've been riding the 15 / -15 for a while now and it's awesome but when aggressively freeriding (like in powder, glades, moguls, etc) you've gotta watch that back knee so you don't completely screw it up cause it puts a lot of stress on it. mine was really bothering me for a while

   damn, my right knee has been injured for about 6 months from mountain biking and im just getting over it, not good. Would it work ok if i just put like -5 or -10 degrees on my back foot?? With +15 in front?

   just start it at somewhere around -10 and adjust it from there, it it feels like its too far rotate it to a smaller angle, if you feel like you want more add it at small increments until it feels right

every bodies preferred stance is totally different depending on your body, your riding style and just personal preference.

what feels great for me might feel ##### for you, and visa versa

   yeah that's what you've got to do. but if your back knee has been injuered for the past 6 months i sure wouldn't want to do anything that would stress it or twist it. i'd start at like -6.
