got myself swoard gen4 and F2 biding. headed to A-basin in colorado to test it. I thought I was gonna cry. It happneded to be powder day and encountered cat walk path unexpectedly. I fell so many times, wished I had brought my soft boots. I would have carved better in soft boots setting. I set binding 60 front and 50 in rear, and when I got on on actual slope, I felt so awkard I was not near to carving. I constently fell when I attmepted backside turn. It was very hard to make turn, and get afraid to snowboard in a way I noramlly do. I felt that I need at least 100 yard across the pass to make a turn feet were so hurting and uncomfortable. swoard was just out of box. bevelling base and side edge would help? I noticed that F2 finings have cant. is it right that they slope down toward cener of your stance? any advice appreciated.

I finally broke and ordered it and its on the way. Surprised how qucik they deliver. I wonder we wax same as other board? Also any place i can ride this time of year close to albuquerque?

Thanks, Good info.

I am riding K2 arbor. I have pretty small feet 24.5cm from heel to toe, but wide and really flat. often had clamping during riding due to my riding habit as well as small width in my size boot. What are 3-4 available boot shapes? Where to look for boot online ? thanks, really appreciated.

ok, then. I could work on the Norm which I found doable for me. Maybe I could prepare equipment for next season. would you comment or would you recommend what combination of board, boot, and binding? I really dont know where to start.

thanks for comments, I will follow your advice.

I am on the verge of trying carving, though I am fairy new even to soft boots snowboarding. I have seen many options for boots and bindings. I am not sure where to start and they are all compatible each other. any input appreciated.

I am quite new, trying to figure out where to start. I figure that I would buy hardboots and binding, and try them on my K2 Arbor formula board, though I am little worried as it is pretty flexible and it is warned in beginner guide that some board might not strong enough to hold hardboot binding. Binding on sale, is it something I am looking for?
