Softboot width setting

In one of the thread, the "ideal" width for ECing with the Extremecarver is height/3.5.

I know it is personal feel/opinion but can this rule be applied to softboot in general or should it be wider a little?

Thanks beforehand!

Si je devine correctement, duck ou pas duck, puisque le push pull est utilise, la rotation reste applicable et donc on n'est pas statique et ne fait pas dos a 100% pendant le backside....

docrob

hi docrob, Regarding my statement on the Dual, I would like to clarify the followings: 1) I know how to EC but when it comes to powder, I am a 100% newbie. So my statement on settings for powder is a statement as a newbie 2) The statement I made was a "guess" so please take it with a big grain of sa...

Merci Jacques pour la reponse detaillee. Ta comprehension du snowboard me bouchera toujours un coin :think: :chinese: Je ne savais pas que mon gabarit de nain me permettrait de mettre des angles plus eleves en bottes souples. Enfin, un premier avantage d'etre petit !!! wooohoooo :lol: Merci x1000.

Jacques, y a t-il des angles a partir desquels (approximativement) les bottes durs ne sont plus recommandes et il faut passer au soft boots? Meme question vice versa? :?:

Benben, Sur la meme longueur d'ondes que les autres, je dirai que 10-12 jours sur une Swoard est equivalent a 20-24 (voire plus) sur une planche moyenne ou bas de gamme. En 10-12 jours, tu vas pouvoir pousser les limites du carving et gagner en confiance/progres bien plus vite sur une Swoard. Pour m...

Hi Jacques, Sorry if your message was "lost in translation".... :oops: It is a shame that I did not get this because the "progressive" behavior of the ATC is what I really love about the Extremecarver. It allows me to change accurately the direction of a typical EC (laydown) turns *at will*. The ste...

The original thought was to connect the performances and riding characteristics of the ExtremeCarver to a freeride sha...
