So I'm 99.9% sold on my next board being a 2015 Ride Highlife UL. My current setup includes a pair of size 11 Nike Zoom Force One's and a L/XL pair of Union SL bindings. My other boards have been 158W and 159W but I would kind of like to ditch the wide boards if possible. Has anyone else rode this board in a 158, 159W or 161 with Size 11 boots? I just don't want to buy a dream board and regret my size choice after my first run. Thanks! Any input would be sweet.

The 161 Highlife is 25.4 wide, could work with an 11, dont know anything about Nike boots and if they have a reduced foot print. The 159W Berzerker is 25.9 wide which is perfect for an 11. I know not the board you want, but its pretty close. And 25.9 to me isnt really what I would consider to be a wide board.

I'm 6'1 180 lb. and used the 158 in a small mountain on the East coast recently. My friend and I are about the same with size 11/12 boot and thought the 158 wasn't bad for that hard-pack condition. 161 Would work great for you if used in good to great conditions. Get the 159W if you want more board.
