Yes, should have mentioned that I suppose.
Haven't yet as it's just something that occurred to me. Season is pretty much over here, so probably won't get a chance to give it a proper test, unfortunately.
If I'm understanding correctly, I think I do this on medium terrain, but it isn't something that's within my confidence level on steep stuff. Also, doesn't fit with my goal for clean carves.
Exactly my thought process, though much more clearly stated.
That explains why I've never seen this discussed, I wouldn't have been inclined to read a discussion on plates.
Overall, sounds like I should give a narrower stance a try. I'll have to see if I can find a sweet spot between being able to move on the board and making more use of my weight to bend it.
