I've been riding about 10 seasons, 25-30 days a year, on a regular board with soft boots. Currently I'm on a 159cm Burton T6 though I've been up to 164 and down to 156. My hills are Ontario hardpack and my style is mostly fast carving... I stay out of the park and pipe. However I always end up cranking my bindings way too tight in search of more stiffness so I figure it's time to try a carving board.
However I have little to no idea what to try. Currently I'm looking at a Prior 4wd, maybe 164cm or 169cm. As to boots and bindings, I have not the faintest idea. Can you guys help me out with a little advice about how to make a smooth transition?
