| Toe edge did feel like more fun while learning...but heel is preferred from a safety point of view. I can see where I am going and what's up coming properly.... |

| I used a Frenchman to stop the other day - very effective instantaneous method of coming to a halt, if slightly painful. |

I agree on the toe edge being more fun!!!
as for seeing where your going.....while you dont look up the hill when stopping onthe toe edge you just counter rotate your body so you can still see down the hill but your get your toe edge in...then your can still see your targer for spraying!!! |

Depends on what edge you're on and how quickly you have to stop. But def toe edge for spraying  |
