I want to buy a board that is short but i wear a size 11 boot at only 5 foot 7 inches tall. So my problem is i want control in the park with minimal toe overhang. So how much is too much overhang and with a size 11 boot is a 25cm waist width to thin? And is a wide board worth it? I heard that they are hard to jump with and control becuase of the extra weight and size. Im really stuck here can somebody help me?

Yeah I’d suggest getting a mid wide board. Something about 26cm at the waist. It’ll keep your toes from dragging with normal angels and it’ll still feel responsive. If in doubt, use our boot size checker
