Boardguru. I ride at Brighton most of the time. Digger, thanks for the offer. Maybe I could let you know when ill be up next time.

Thanks everyone for the info and knowledge.

Just had a few questions. I have never rode a hard boot board. In fact I wasn't even sure if anyone rode these outside of competition anymore. I live in the western US in Utah. I was riding today and saw a hard booter. I was really excited to see it. As I have gotten older I have started riding with a more forward stance with my soft boots just cause I have liked to carve, and not leave the ground anymore. Had a friend tell me the other day he couldnt follow my line cause it was to deep and he ate shit in the line. He asked me how I rode like that and I just told him I ride on my edges I don't slide on them like most do. I had a guy tuning my board ask why I rode with my back foot in a forward stance. He told me i would be better if I didn't ride like that. What I'm trying to get at is I live where in general no one seems to have a lot of knowledge about the way you guys ride. I'm looking for anyone on here that might know of some local places I could check out some alpine boards and learn more. (Utah) I have also wondered what binding angles you usually ride with hard boots, and how much of a forward angle I could ride with soft boots? Thanks for any help!
