- Ever wondered if there was a perfect snowboard stance to protect your knees so you can continue riding until you are 70 or 80 years old? Today we have a follow up to a video I made 2 years ago that goes a bit more in-depth on the complexity of this answer. My goal is for you to learn about how your body works biomechanically but also how other factors influence our movement patterns, habits, and choices. The long/short answer to it all is this is a complex issue that requires a multi-factorial approach. Enjoy!

I was diagnosed with patellofemoral pain syndrome. I was told by my physical therapist I should work on strengthening my glutes and hips as apparently they're weak and that's causing my issue.
I think that's a piece of the puzzle. That quad strength is directly connected to that patella so that's also where my efforts would be distributed!
For years I assumed the widest comfortable stance was ideal. Last year shortened it a half inch, liked that, and then went another half inch. Was quite surprised that I felt more stable and nimble like that, and could certainly spin 360 in all directions quicker. Will keep experimenting until it feels too narrow
That's amazing! I think many are worried to experiment with their stance because they want to take advantage of their time on the mountain (which I understand). But, even if something has been working for you, doesn't mean you cannot make it better! Keep us posted!
Hey! I’m interested in your shred 3.0 program. Is there special equipment required, or is everything able to be done with household items?
Hey! Shred 3.0 can absolutely be completed in home. I would highly recommend a doorway pull up bar, bands, and some weights. Everything else can be makeshift around the home :) There is a equipment list on the Shred 3.0 site and Im happy to answer any questions!
I normally stand +15, -15. I tried +18, +6 and almost blew a knee out.
Crazy how much a few degrees can play on your joints right?
Short answer: Mobility duo won't be able to give you a stance width or stance angles to protect your knees. Saved you 15 minutes. Feel free to watch if you want to hear him talk about why he can't give you a stance width or stance angles.
😄 I wish it were that easy Danny! I would feel more guilty giving you false numbers and putting everyone in a box when in reality, this just isn't the case. Best of luck with your search and I hope this provided some clarity.
Brother, you might need some bigger sandals 😂

I’m no doctor. But in my experience, roughly 2800 1.75 bottles of grain alcohol have not done my knees any favors. Dirt bikes on the other hand, knee destroyers. Stay a away from dirt bikes.
They may have not have helped your knees, but it sure helped you forget about them!
As someone who rode dirt biked when they were younger, I concur...
