Hey guys, im a new rider interested in an all mountain board that has insane carving capabilites. I have a budget of about 500. only problem is,im 6'4, 220lbs.. and im a size 12 boot and none of the boards that i want come in wide! can i pull off a standard width board without dragging my feet in a forward stance riding position? i would like a board with great control, not really worried about speed, interested in length between 159-164 with regular or hybrid camber (no v-rockers!). Thanks for your help.

EDIT: that 161 Capita Quiver Killer is in my sights, really worried about drag tho since it isnt wide. Live in MD so there arent really any local board shops
