Really good video and thanks for giving your spec (height, weight, size of boards, boots, stance width, angle). It's really important for people like us who cant go a lot of weeks a year in mountain to save times to test setup and having the réf of a good snowboarder like you. Fortunately I have the same height and weight of you 😀.
@@SnowboardAddiction you haven’t help, you’ve inspired me, which has had a butterfly effect of inspiring my friends and family. We appreciate you greatly and I look forward to contributing to this channel by watching content, liking and commenting. Thanks again to you and the team
A good rule of thumb to find your approximate stance width is to measure from the centre of your knee to your ankle and use that measurement. Then experiment!!! Be careful not to go too wide or too duck footed as it can put strain on your knees and hips. I have to say though, I couldn't ride duck until Burton introduced autocant on their foot beds. It is brilliant! No more sore knees! All the best, Rich in Sweden.
Centre of knee to the floor is what I have been using for many years. If I used centre of knee to ankle that would be less than the minimum stance on my last 3 or 4 boards.
Have been boarding 20 yrs, but since 2018. Its always good to have info like this on hand, especially when expecting a new board and trying to rember how to setup. Thanks Nev!
Soooo nice! Got that board as a gift this year with Cartel X bindings! Can't wait to use it! It is replacing an old 2004 Custom with mission bindings! BTW I am new to this channel and I love it! Great videos, awesome tips and explanations!
Hey Jon, I didn't wax this board, but I did wax it after the first 2 days because it was feeling a bit slow. It absorbed quite a bit of wax on it's first waxing. After that I wax about once every 7 ish days of riding give or take
Nice and helpful video!👍 I just got a new brand board and bindings, deep thinker 154 and Cartel EST, I was wondering if I have 8.5 size of boots, should be ok centered in the middle or should I bring it a bit forward, thanks 👍
Awesome, what a setup! With 8.5 you should be fine to stay centered. The best way to be sure is put your boots in the bindings and tilt the board up onto its edge and see what angle you get to before the toe of the boot comes into contact with the ground :)
I put in 19 inch to the nose to the midle of my front binding and 17 on midle of my binding to tail is correct? Or I need same size by nose to binding and tail to binding ???
Hi. Nici video. At 5:56 you mentioned that you have 5.9 and you ride 154/157 boards .... thats about 1.80 cm. I have 1.70cm what lenght do you think i should ride ? Thanks. Keep them coming! 😁👍🙏🙏🙏
I'm riding an Custom Camber 169W from 2016 with a Mala Vita EST and Salomon HiFi boots size 290mm. For me a great setup. Now I'm searching a plate (10 ... 20mm) to use under the binding to reduce toe and heeldrag and to get more pressure on the edges while carving hard. Is it possible to buy such a plate for EST-Bindings or must I build a self made plate? Buying new board, boot, binding is not an option for me! Thanks a lot.
I just tried to align the highbacks of my burton bindings to the heelside of my board, but when I came to tighten the screws, it looked almost like I had to force the highbacks in the new position like they wanted to come back to the standard position. Did I do it wrong or is that normal? Thank you for the video, very useful to me!
I have a 162W burton custom with size 14 boots and I do have size large bindings obviously. Do u recommended sliding my bindings all the way to the front? Thanks!
This question is too specific to get into on a youtube comment however come join us on a live session and we will dive into it with you: snowboardaddiction.com/ADDICTION+
I believe Nev is using the Burton Malavita Bindings. The straps taper down really thin to flex like that and could break in Canadian temperatures😏 If the ankle strap is bothersome for stepping. Try pulling it back and laying along the board pinning the ratchet by the toe of the binding. Hope this helps🤙
Hello Nev you are great snowboarder I don't speek english very well but I have one queistion for you. I buy boots and bindings nitro and I want to buy nitro snowboard becouse we have some store in my town. Can you tell me some nitro board approximatelu to this Burton. I drive only in park and i want to carving and speed. Help man .
I'm 6'1" and 300lbs with size 14 shoes. I have destroyed my knees from booting out many times over the years, thus the weight issues. I can't really run or do high impact stuff. I bought some used skis and I plan to switch it up this season. Nobody makes a board wide enough and nobody makes risers anymore. I'm screwed... Unless you can think of a board for a large man?
You can try a stiff, short/fat board. The Telos Back/Slash in 158 will hold 300 lbs., and should barely fit a size 14 boot. Another option is a Lib Tech Skunk Ape. They make a 173 ultra wide. If your knees are already shot, I'm worried about skiing, but that's your choice.
Or go with Ride Superpig, Ride Warpig or Ride Twinpig. These boards are super wide with waist width 27+ cm wide. But they are considered medium flex, not sure if that will support 300lbs body weight. But the width should be able to handle it. But the Donek Knapton Twin cant go wrong. It is a stiff board and you can customize the waist width to be 30+ cm wide.
Can you detune contact points with a medium firm gummy stone? Love your vids, always inspiring and really helping me progress my riding! 180’s are so simple but they are feeling so good, fs/bs and switch!
@@SnowboardAddiction ok, Ill try a file. Hey - Im getting my first shiftys thanks to your profile! 23 days on the mtn this season, huge progression for me. Thanks for doing what you do!
@SnowboardAddiction so it's probably me last year, It was my first time riding a camber board . One more question I'm 5"6 174 pounds, and size 10 boots it's my 150 custom the correct size board?
Good job explaining all that buddy .... would you recommend the Burton Custom to a guy who has about 5 weeks experience .... I did the longest black run in Europe on day 4 so like a challenge ....
The Custom is a really good all round board. Generally something a little softer makes it easier for learning on. I believe the process is similar but a little softer.
One of the best channel for snowboarders

@Guinea Suarus yeah I do. But the older bindings combined with my old stance being too wide equals bad posture. Can't do much about that.
Centre of knee to the floor is what I have been using for many years. If I used centre of knee to ankle that would be less than the minimum stance on my last 3 or 4 boards.
waheeeey, good to see you back Niv! 😉
Awesome video! As a southerner getting into snowboarding this was super helpful 👍🏾

Nev aka the living Legend 😅 love your videos !
Yay new video and just in time for this season
Another one coming at you later this week
@@nevlapwood thank you brotha. I love snowboard videos on my day off
loved this video. Thanks for your help
Great video Nev, I wish you'd made it 12 years ago!! :-)

I got the same exact set up cant wait to ride it!
the page ever !!!!
Great video👍 Do you wax the new board or do you just go with the factory wax? How many days of riding before you re-wax your new board? Thanks. 🙏
Hey Jon, I didn't wax this board, but I did wax it after the first 2 days because it was feeling a bit slow. It absorbed quite a bit of wax on it's first waxing. After that I wax about once every 7 ish days of riding give or take
I started riding again in Juneau Alaska. I appreciate your channel for some extra tips. Everything changes all the time

@@SnowboardAddiction will do that pal! Thanks for your reply! Big like for all your tutorials 👍
Can you do a video how you file the edges of the board please.
I put in 19 inch to the nose to the midle of my front binding and 17 on midle of my binding to tail is correct? Or I need same size by nose to binding and tail to binding ???
Depends on the board. But that should be good:)
Hi. Nici video. At 5:56 you mentioned that you have 5.9 and you ride 154/157 boards .... thats about 1.80 cm. I have 1.70cm what lenght do you think i should ride ? Thanks. Keep them coming! 😁👍🙏🙏🙏
Board length should be based on your weight, not height. Stance can depend on your height (or length of your legs).
Hey Nev do you recommend heat molding those life liners in the ion boot? Thanks for the vid

I don't know of any plate available sorry.
What brand and model are your gloves?
Burton
Good stuff
Nev, why dont you use step on? You dont like them? Or anything? Or why?
Great vid. Really helpful. Keep up the good work 👍
I just tried to align the highbacks of my burton bindings to the heelside of my board, but when I came to tighten the screws, it looked almost like I had to force the highbacks in the new position like they wanted to come back to the standard position. Did I do it wrong or is that normal?
Thank you for the video, very useful to me!
I think you should centre your boot across the board regardless of how large or small it is.
Yeah totally, You should have an equal amount of space/over hang (depending on small or large boots) on your toe and heel edge of your boot :)
Is there any chance I can get a couple of small stickers for my board ? I live in New Zealand
New Zealand is pretty tricky to send stickers to for us. send us a email on our site and we will see what we can do.
What’s up nev?!
Any chance of you coming to Tahoe this season?
I don't have any plans to right now. COVID is still making travel hard for us up here in Canada. Love Tahoe though
Do you use the same stance/angles for your pow board?
I have a 162W burton custom with size 14 boots and I do have size large bindings obviously. Do u recommended sliding my bindings all the way to the front? Thanks!

How would you know how wide you want to ride your stance?
Hey, how do i know how much forward lean is good for me? Just tell by the feeling when riding?

where i can find this board? Link plz
Hey, quick question, how do you get the ankle strap to bend backwards like that?
I believe Nev is using the Burton Malavita Bindings. The straps taper down really thin to flex like that and could break in Canadian temperatures😏 If the ankle strap is bothersome for stepping. Try pulling it back and laying along the board pinning the ratchet by the toe of the binding. Hope this helps🤙
what size is that burton custom?
Hello Nev you are great snowboarder I don't speek english very well but I have one queistion for you. I buy boots and bindings nitro and I want to buy nitro snowboard becouse we have some store in my town. Can you tell me some nitro board approximatelu to this Burton. I drive only in park and i want to carving and speed. Help man .
I’m 5’9” 180 lb and broad shoulders. You mentioned you are also 5’9”, I like the fit of your jacket, what size is your jacket?
Size large
I'm 6'1" and 300lbs with size 14 shoes. I have destroyed my knees from booting out many times over the years, thus the weight issues. I can't really run or do high impact stuff. I bought some used skis and I plan to switch it up this season. Nobody makes a board wide enough and nobody makes risers anymore. I'm screwed... Unless you can think of a board for a large man?
Hey consider Donek Knapton. You can customize it to fit your feet size
@@salamdamai this is the correct answer.
You can try a stiff, short/fat board. The Telos Back/Slash in 158 will hold 300 lbs., and should barely fit a size 14 boot.
Another option is a Lib Tech Skunk Ape. They make a 173 ultra wide.

But the width should be able to handle it. But the Donek Knapton Twin cant go wrong. It is a stiff board and you can customize the waist width to be 30+ cm wide.
Pro tip - you will lose the rubber plugs.
They tend to say in for for on the newer boards. I used to lose them when they first came out with the channel
@@nevlapwood I gave up, I just never put them back in.
Ghetto style 3BT lol

On icy conditions this board dont perform good
a traditional camber, exactly like this one, is the most ideal board type for all types of riding especially in icy conditions!
@SnowboardAddiction so it's probably me last year, It was my first time riding a camber board . One more question I'm 5"6 174 pounds, and size 10 boots it's my 150 custom the correct size board?
You could go a couple cm higher, but if your happy it’s all good:)
@@SnowboardAddiction tku
Good job explaining all that buddy .... would you recommend the Burton Custom to a guy who has about 5 weeks experience .... I did the longest black run in Europe on day 4 so like a challenge ....
I would not recommend a custom for a new rider.
The Custom is a really good all round board. Generally something a little softer makes it easier for learning on. I believe the process is similar but a little softer.
@@nevlapwood the process has a pure pop camber profile ( my favorite ) and is more forgiving than pure camber.
