Yes! Nitro Signal Flux
Ok got an email response from Flux:
The highbacks can be switched with another for a different feeling ride. With the higher end of the highbacks towards the middle the bindings are most responsive. When you are using the higher end of the highbacks toward the outsides the bindings you have more response on the outside and more movement on the inside for presses and tweaking. Kinda like the same idea as the wings. With more material to push up against the better your presses can be. With more material on the inside (higher end on the inside) the bindnigns have more edge to edge response.
Hope this helps! Let us know if you have any other questions!
Hey mate,
That’s awesome! Really stoked for you and thanks for posting this thread.

I haven’t read the replies in this thread yet but I’m sure there’s some great advice already.
Here are my thoughts:
I like what you’re doing with your setups. Stiffer/longer setup for freeriding, with a narrower and more direction stance. Softer/smaller setup with a wider and centred stance for all mountain and park riding.
At your height I consider anything from about 20” to 22” to be narrow, 22” to 23” to be the mid-range, and 23” to 25” to be wide (give or take).
Make changes to your setup regularly and see how it feels. Play around with your angles. Don’t set your mind on angles until you’ve tried a large variety and felt the difference. Eventually, I would suggest trying an equal duck stance around the 15 / -15 mark. Personally I find this stance very versatile and comfortable.
Forward lean is a personal preference. You’ll get a lot of different opinions on it. Personally I like a fair bit of forward lean on my bindings no matter what I’m riding. Others will run no forward lean with no problems.
The key is to understand what you’re changing, what effect the change is going to me, and most importantly trying many different setting until you find exactly what works.
Enjoy your new setup, mate!

Cheers, Jez and many thanks again for helping me get the new gear. I’m glad you put in actual stance widths since I’ve often wondered about that and have never played with it before. I’ve been riding the reference stance marked on my old Burton Custom, which I measured at just under 21”, so all those years I’ve been riding a narrow stance. Definitely keen to try wider this year.
I actually have both my boards set up pretty much the same at present, but I am thinking I might go back to +/+ stance on the freeride stick, with maybe a mid-range width to start with. I am definitely planning to monkey around more with the angles and widths on the Tasman, and will start with +15/-3 and head to at least -6 maybe -15 if it feels ok. Given it’s a pretty small board for my height, I’m going to be pushing out towards the widest stance. I’m really keen to get some idea of how the new boards compare to my old ride, so I’m not going too aggressive with changes right off the bat.
I don’t have too much idea about forward lean. I’ve just stuck my boot into the binders and cranked them forward until the highbacks are just pushing on the boot all the way to the top.
No worries, mate. It was a pleasure.
Here’s an old thread on forward lean that may interest you: https://www.boardworld.com.au/forums/viewthread/236/ (feel free to resurrect it if you have any questions).

I find that odd, I definitely guessed it wrong. I just looked up some pictures of freestyle and freeride bindings to compare high backs, most just had flat and even heights, but some, like the contraband’s (pretty freestyle specific binding) did have the outside side higher.

yeah, me too. The worst thing about it is that Mizu was right! 
I knew that I was more than just a pretty face!!!!!
