After 5 years of not snowboarding...
I am finally thinking of coming back to snowboarding and I want to come back riding harder and better than I ever did before...
When I started way back in 2002-2003...Positive Camber was all that there was...And the shapes were pretty much a standard park shape with twin nose/tails.
Now-a-days...There are all kinds of camber options and shapes to choose from...Its really confusing
But at the same time...I think its a great direction for the snowboard industry and it makes snowboarding that much more fun to get back into for veterans and even beginners a like.
Which one of these should I start with...
1. Regular Positive Camber from contact point to contact point.
2. Positive Camber between inserts, Rocker Camber from inserts to nose/tail
3. Rocker Camber between inserts, Positive Camber from inserts to nose/tail
I figured since I started with positive camber...that I should go with option 1...than experiment with the other 2 options as I progress back into it.
But at the same time...these new camber hybrid options make so much 'sense' now and I believe might even make getting back into snowboarding that much more fun and make progression faster..no...?
If that's the case...Should I go option 2 or 3...?
Any suggestion or tips would be greatly appreciated. Apologies for the long thread.
