I have a size 11.5 boot and i was wondering if i would need to get a wide board or not..

Yeah, well my boots are the Burton Freestyles, and my board length is gonna be around 153 or 154. My stance isnt completely duck but it's definatly angled. I snowboard mostly park, so im not really into extreme carving. Im trying to get a regular board because people say that its a little harder to maneuver.

The board i have now is a Burton Blunt, and im pretty sure its the regular 147, and i was riding with that all last season, and i was fine. I was also using the same boots.

if you haven't had troubles with toe/heel drag on other regular boards then you'll be fine, you'll know if you need a wide board trust me.
