what do most ppl have the lean adjustment on?- what are pros and cons?

im guessing more lean = more aggressive, better on steeps but harder on legs

less lean = opposite of above

cheers

I was just writing in a quad burn thread, here's a definite relationship to that factor.

More lean makes tight heel side carves a little easier, but not dramatically so. I've been riding position 5 for a while and my heelsides are still as tight as my toesides.

Standing taller feels a little less stable at first, but on the other hand I think that's a fun exercise.

Experiment and see what you prefer.

just flat depends. I use the lean adjuster @ frt. 5 and rear1 on my Renntiger. If using my split board I ride with the lean adjusters locked open so the boot cuff flex is free. This helps in the moguls/rough terrain a lot. You've just got to experement.
