Union Flite M/L or L/XL (HELP!!!)

Hi, i bought the union flite M/L binding for my size 10.5 boots. They hang off 1.5 inches on the back and only .5 inches in the front (because i moved the base plate forward). But pretty even over the board. These bindings seem a bit small, should i go with the XL? Would getting the XL make a big difference? Will they fit on my board, or will i need a wide? My boots fit in the bindings. Just i've been having troubles getting the toe strap to fit right. The best way makes in uneven (more of the strap on one side than the other) and i heard that isnt good. So yeah, what do u guys think? I'm really getting worked up about this.

I have the same problem with the strap showing a lot on the ankle strap. I thought of maybe just buying Large/ Ex.Lrg straps only. But some people reassured me my Med/Large on my 10.5 foot should be fine with the shrinkage tech I got in the boot. I know how you feel we are at that awkward in between size.

Have you pulled your heelcup out to 2 (furthest setting) yet?

Yeah, that's exactly it. Both M/L and L/XL fit my boot size. It sucks. No i haven't, i thought it would just make it worse because i already have most of the boot overhang on the back. What worries me is i have 3/4 of an inch of space on each side (back and front), where my binding sits on my board. Will that give me less control over my board? My old bindings covered all that surface without going over the edge.

i put my ankle strap on the furthest setting and it fits good. just the toe strap fits awkward.

I own a pair of the L/XL Flites and I have a size 13 boot. My boot is a tight fit in the bindings. I think the Flites run on the smaller end of the scale. You would probably do fine with the L/XL.
