Skill wise yeah - 51 w/ the standard will be a bit quicker edge to edge unless pushing big cliffs or big park no need for the extra few cms
Parent context: Looking at the Yes standard and Lib tech cold brew atm but open to suggestions Reply: Standard is a great call.
All twin-ish, can go relatively fast, and have really good pow capabilities.
K2 Passport, ride moderator/shadowban, jones frontier, yes standard, rome ravine, Salomon assassin, wired recon
Ride shadowban, yes standard, yes greats, ride warpig, other volume shifted boards for advantage in trees. All good picks.

forces are more durable if you’re a riding like a pro and dropping cliffs or super high impact all the time
Now, if you get Union FORCES, you shouldn't have that issue. They have an extra screw that secures the heel cup into place... I rode in some Forces the other day, on and off piste. I checked the heelcup after riding and it hadn't moved at all.
Union Force (overhauled version)
Can't go wrong with union forces.
I own union forces and you are right sbout the screws loosening a bit, wasn’t really a problem to me since I just screwed them up once a week.
