[Soft boot carving binding settings??]

I’ve been riding a hard boot plate carving set up for over 10 years.  Swoard and F2 bindings.  I recently switched to a soft boot carving set up.  I used to ride a 53/50 front back binding degree set up.  

My current board is a SG Soul w Union Force bindings.  What degree set up should I use for my soft boot binding set up?  I’ve heard a lot of ranges, 15-30 on the front and 5-20 on the back.  Any suggestions would help.

[Newbie and board length suggestions]

great comments, I'm going on my 3rd year with a season pass at Heavenly, thus haven't boarded on other resorts, trying to milk all that I can out of the season pass. Heavenly gets crowded and doesn't have a lot of open bowls, somewhat narrow runs and always dodging kooks. thanks for the feedback, i have a pretty good idea of what to purchase. peace out

Thanks for the feedback, I still have my freestyle board if I ever want to go back. I intend to use this board for a carving board on packed groomed powder. The concern is that I'm just starting and not sure where to start

[Newbie and board length suggestions]

I have boarded for the last 7 years and now making the switch to hard plate carving, i've tried it a few times, but now going to purchase.

i'm 5'6", 165lbs and thought about a F2 158 speedcross

Do you think this is a good size? a guy at Donek suggested a 167. I thought that was a little long for someone who is just starting.

Let me know what you think................
