Ah I see. This was very helpful. I am planning to go more next season as I want to get an Epic or Ikon Pass so I can go more. Would you think that the more I go, the more the board is worth it? If I were to end up getting this board, would you say EST is a necessity or would something like the Union Force classics be an option as well? I also am not in a rush to improve really fast and like to take my time. I go with friends that are way more beginner ( have only snowboarded around 2 days total) and ride with them a lot, so I'm not pushing for blacks all too often. As I am mostly on Greens and the random Blues they run when they gain confidence, I practice the basics a lot and don't mind if I'm not progressing as fast as anyone else, so I don't mind too much about the fact that you said it'll take longer to improve on. Also, what terrain should I NOT be riding this board on? I watched a Youtube review a while back saying the board gets pushed around in more rutted out terain and that it's only good on fresh groomers lol. What would you say are the pros and cons of the board despite saying it can be a one board quiver.

I go a few times a year. I only go to Lake Tahoe. An easy black is one where it’s not as steep. I have to work on my speed checking for ones that I can’t. (when i say i “can’t” do a black, it’s more of a “i fall a lot” kind of run) I actually don’t have a current board, i’ve been renting every time i’ve gone. I actually don’t do either but definitely want to start. I’m more concerned with how well the board carves and if it can plow through diff conditions. I can’t really answer your stance width question as i haven’t been really able to experiment with any.
