This snowboard does not look symmetrical. I am still learning. Before I had a symmetrical one ( I could not tell from nose to tail ) ... And I had an stance 15 degrees - 15 deg and the same distance binding-nose , binding-tail
This one now , Could I set it up 15 - 15 ? And have the same distance front binding -nose, back binding-tail?
Or is better to have more space on the nose/front binding than space tail/back binding ?
You still can. It's what ever is comfortable for you. Your old board was a "true twin" and it just makes it easier to ride switch or ride with either end pointing down the mountain. This board looks to be a "directional twin." Meaning one end is clearly intended to be the front end, however, they are nearly identical. You stance really is determined by what you are comfortable with. If that's 15/15 go for it. That stance is better for riding switch or park. It is sometimes recommended for newer riders to start w/ the front foot at 15 and the back foot around zero or slightly negative (duck-footed) and work the back foot to what's comfortable as you are learning. Personally, I don't ride park or do much switch riding so I ride 18/-9. But I like bombing runs, trees and steeps.
Thanks a lot for all the info. I saved a lot of time!
