Knee Facts

Some facts I've found:

• Knee injuries are a common occurrence among snowboarders. (Despite what most of the internet says)
  
• 25% of all rider injuries involve the knee.
• Almost 75% of all snowboard injuries occur on the lead leg.
• Medial collateral ligament (MCL) injuries occur most frequently in duck stance snowboarders because the inner angle of the bindings place a tremendous amount of stress on the inside portion of the knee.

I ride in a ducked stance, 15+/15-, and my knee is my lead knee. I'm doing some research on whether my ducked stance and stance width have any effect on the many knee problems I'm facing now. And if I maybe should consider altering it a bit to help.
