The stance angle of your bindings is really a matter of personal preference. Beginners tend to angle their front foot to get them leaning downhill while keeping the back foot straight with little or no angle. Racers tend to angle both feet quite a bit to really crank on their turns. Park and pipe riders will sometimes angle both feet in opposite directions outward. This is called a "ducked" stance and is ideal for riding both regular and switch.
