ohhh man, I just mounted the 390's on it... -15/+15, 22 1/2", strapped the boots in and felt right at home

^ too much! about $570 canadian.

I think its about $100 cheaper in good 'ol 'merica, but by the time i pay for shipping, duties, fees, it'll come out to the same thing.

whats the maximum allowable overhang these days? 1.5"?

I was checking the setup and there's about 1 1/4" of toe overhang... maybe slightly less on the heel side... will it make pipe riding harder?

The dude at the shop said it should be ok with a size 12 boot (mine are REALLY low profile, though... they look like an 11), he also suggested to avoid wide and mid-wide boards if I can, and said those are for people qith 13+ shoe sizes... sales pitch, or troof?

o and the sizing, the rome site says the slash is for those trying to fit an 11 on an agent ... a wide waist, say 264, accomodates my size 13, if your boots have a small footprint then its gotta be comparable to my board to boot ratio ... your borderline it seems, a wide may feel too sluggish, and if you dont mind riding 15/-15 then your right on track my man

So I guess you will no longer be needing my assistance on aquiring a board. And welcome to the club.

Holy crap that was chaotic. I went in to see if I could find a jacket and came out with two ski poles instead!
