I know this is an older post but I'm just reading it for the first time and have a question– are there specific riding conditions/terrain in which you would want to go with a board with a larger sidecut radius than a smaller one, or is it more personal preference?My board has a SR of around 7.5, is this narrower than average cuz its a girls board?nbsp; (Burton feelgood 152)
On average, larger sidecut radius is better for big mountain riding and higher speed stuff. Smaller sidecut radius (like yours) is better for smaller mountains and slower speeds. Other than that it is personal preference. For example, some freestylers like being able to make sharper carve turns in the halfpipe (smaller radius) and some like longer turns in the pipe to maintain speed better.
