Term
Setback
A rearward offset of stance or reference geometry; specify the manufacturer's reference.
GLOSSARY · Equipment, setup & maintenance
Setback moves the stance toward the tail, leaving a longer nose in front of the rider. It helps the nose float in powder and gives a more directional feel.
Context and distinction
Setback is a setup or design choice; leaning back is a riding movement. Different brands measure setback from different reference points.
