Stance, binding spacings
The stance is the distance between the 2 bindings in cm. It can be adapted according to your body shape but be aware that all snowboards have a recommended stance for bindings (shown by a mark between the binding inserts). If you want to position your feet further apart or closer together on the board, do the test to see if you are best placed.
How do I change my stance on the board?
For piste / off-piste boards:
If you want to tighten the feet, then it’s best to move the binding forwards only. On the other hand, If you want to move the feet apart then it’s best to move the binding backwards. The aim is to be a little further back to take the bends better on piste and to float on the powder snow.
For freestyle boards (symmetrical):
It is best to move the 2 bindings to remain centred on the board.
At what angle should I put my snowboard bindings?
For a freeride run, we recommend +18° at the front and 0° at the rear. For a versatile freestyle run, try +18° and -6°. The rear foot opening lets you change when riding switch. For pure freestyle runs, choose completely symmetrical angles such as +15° and -15° for example.
Angle choice on bindings is a very personal thing. Feel free to check out what others are doing and try out different options. You might be pleasantly surprised!
Don't forget to centre your boot on your board!
Disc bindings with 4 screws can slide along a single axis and generally have 5 possible settings. This setting is used to centre the boot on the snowboard and prevent the foot from protruding over the edge of the board too much (otherwise you will fall!). Make sure that your boot goes over the 2 sides of the board equally. You can also rotate the disc by 90° to put more or less stance than anticipated by the inserts. In this case, the bindings can’t be centred laterally.
What size should I choose for my snowboard bindings?
For Rhythm bindings, Salomon recommends:
M: 6 to 9.5
L: 9 to 13
Just as you would always try on a shoe with your own foot, we strongly recommend trying on the bindings with your snowboard boots as a particular size of boot can vary in volume depending on the brand.
