If your front binding is that far forward towards the tip and you are set up twin your back binding is equally that far back towards the tail. that is causing you to have an insanely wide stance for all but giants and is likely not allowing your body to get into the best positions for snowboarding. In addition a 15, -15 stance is not really biometricaly optimized for most people but you do you. my comment about your nose diving had more to do with you being too far forward on the board based on your stance in the event you weren’t set up twin. It’s a moot point as you have confirmed you’re set up twin. All boards will float or sink depending on terrain pitch and speed. Twin cambered boards generally have the hardest time with this, but will float at speed and pitch just like any other board will. It just won’t be the easiest or most fun way to get there.

As far next board, your wife is right, if you want to stay with Burton get a custom. However, to reiterate what everyone else has said there are so many other options out there which are better outside the Burton bubble.

I truly appreciate it
I will upload a better picture of my board in hopes to better my stance in a moment
So you’d suggest lessening the width of my stance? What benefits would that provide overall? The only issue I have with my riding is that my spins aren’t as great as I wish they were. I was always under the impression to keep a decent width especially since Shaun white always pushed for a wide stance especially for the style of riding that I do or so I thought
Like I said my stance helps me perform exactly how I want besides getting better spins, but I am open to suggestions and optimization

Also wouldn’t the custom x favor me better over the custom as it has a similar profile to the antler?
Also since I’m at a 154.5 would you suggest looking for a 154 or 156 board for the future?
Thank you

Brah, get a custom X 156. 21”-22” stance. Snowboard more and stop watching Shaun White videos. End of antler talk.

Do whatever you want. This group isn’t going to validate you. Especially at this point, when you’re so far into kook town that my tinfoil hat says you’re a plant from Angry.
