I have the Burton Imperial in size 11. It has the Shrinkage technology so the boot imprint should be the same size as a size 10.

I'm thinking about purchasing a pair of Burton bindings, either Malavita or Mission and I wanted to know if you think I should go MED or LARGE. My boots definitely overhang a MED binding about a half inch more than the boots overhang the LARGE binding.

Apparently, I'm on the high end of the MED and lower end of the LARGE. Does it matter/make a big difference which size I go with?

I haven't purchased a board yet either, but I would rather not get a wide board. Does the Large binding require a larger board or do they fit normal sized boards fine?

Thanks in advance for the tips!
