So height of boot connector an thus forward lean angle is defined by length of lower spring.

Ahh, you are correct! Very Sorry!

my 2 ct

I don't understand. even if the springs were different lengths, if you were using the same 2 springs, it'd be the same height.

2+3=5 and 3+2=5


Right?

I'm very light. But I really enjoy a longer board. Currently I am riding an Elan Ballistic 171cm. And I love it to death. I am hoping to get a new Swoard board, but I can't decide on the length. I'm about 60kg and 175cm tall. What would be the advantages and disadvantages between the 168M and the 17...

I'm looking at either the 168M or the 175M, If I were to order either of these would I still be looking 2-3 weeks to get it over here in the states?
Ohio to be exact.

Hey guys. I'm over here in Ohio. One of the 3 alpine riders within 200 miles.

But I'm seriously considering getting one of these beasts.

I make it out of ohio for 1 good trip a year. This year will probably just be Snowshoe. Next year I would love to get up to Stratton.

Carve on everyone!
