What is the best stance for freestyle? my friend says that the front binding should be at 10 degrees and the back a 5, but a red an article somewhere saying that both bindings should be at the same angle. What do you think?

These links offer some advice. I'd say duck stance is best for fakie/switch as the rear leg part of the body is more natural when becoming the front part.

Your stance is all about comfort and Im not talking about instant comfort because anytime that you change anything on your setup it will feel weird for example: new boots, bindings stance angles, and stance width. I would start out with a duck stance which is a positive front angle and a negative back angle (toe of the front binding pointing more to the nose of the board and the toe of the back binding pointing more to the tail of the board). As far as angles go I ride 15 front and -9 back. I think that 12 and -6 are good places to start. but i would just mess around in the house with it. Also make sure to take at least 3 runs on your stance before deciding if you like it or not. It takes about that long to really get a feel for something new.
