Feet position

I debating wether to go 0 on the back foot or go into duck with negatives. Any thoughts? I know some pro riders do duck stance and its supposedly easier to grind with that.
 
depends on what level you are riding at...if you want to land switch more its alot easier if your in the negatives, and it does help for balance on the rails, its usually personal preference, i have 21, -21.
 
i keep a progressive stance +3 in the back and +18 in the front i cant hit rails and ride switch just fine and it helps me on my backsid wall in the pipe.
 
the standard park stance is usually around +15,-15. if you're just starting to ride duck you may want +15,-10 until you get a little more used to it.
 
i got 18 -15 on the angles and 24 inches wide. personally i would rock your stance at least a little duck from the start so you get used to it cause you would prob switch eventually
 
Max stance on my board right now is like, 22.5" so Im at that. With 15 front, and -12 in the back
 
yeah i ride at 15 -10 and almost the hole way out

if i go any more duct it hurts my knees

basicly do what feel comfertable for you
 
i have 18 on the front, -9 in the back. 22"wide (yeah i have a wide stance for a girl)

pretty comfortable with it, and i can ride switch alright.

my advice: do what feels comfortable. if you do decide to duck your stance, don't duck it too much, because 1.that's bad style and 2. probably very uncomfortable and very bad for your legs. super wide stances are a silly trend, go for shoulder width stance.
 
I ride with about a +15 and -7ish, trying to progressively get better with duck cuz i truly suck at landing switch.
 
go like 15 on front and negative 13 in back thats what i do and i only ride park and it works good..and put your stance as wide as it goes

 
i have a ride agenda. im about 5'3". only ridden it 3 times so far but its a pretty fun board and only 300$, which is a pretty good deal considering the price of other freestlyle boards.
 
its about a medium flex, its butterable and what not but can still hold an edge. i havent rode to many other park boards so im not sure what to compare it to.
 
agendas are sick park boards. they are ride's second softest boards, which makes them perfect for almost any size jump and flexy enough for every park rail and most handrails.
 
if you are gonna be in tremblant like u said, ill let you try it out in the park so long you dont ride away with it. if you do, i might have to wip out ma tek-9. ill be in green pants and a red jacket
 
I go almost straight forward, depends on the bindings but 2, -2 degrees and 25 inch stance on a 156cm board. Forum of course.
 
just for an update on mine, i started with 10, -10 and im at 15, -15 now. Thanks for your guys advice
 
yah i started to progressively move it more ducked as i got better, you might even move it more eventually.
