The Custom will certainly be too narrow for your size 12 boats. The
Centric has a waist of 25.18cm and the Finch is 25.58cm. Even the wider
Finch is still too narrow for your feet IMO. I would look for a board
that has a waist of 26 cm or more. If your looking for one board that
will do it all and fit your feet I would check out the Rome Flag, Ride
Dose, Burton Baron/ES, or GNU 11 up.

The Custom is the dopest board but its to narrow for your boot size. But dont fear Go with Burton Baron. Its the same board as the Custom just wider. Go for it ;)

Ive heard alot of good things about the custom, and personally think it is a great board, i dont have either of these, but of which ive ridden id say the custom.. not too expensive, but a great board.

Well I think I have narrowed the board I want to 3 different boards, I am looking for some opinions on which board is the best ?
Weight-190
height-5'10"
shoe-12
level-intermediate-advanced
Freesytle is my main focus but there is also nothing like diving into some powder. I can only afford 1 board so I need one that does it all. The boards I think are best for me are ( if you feel differently dont hesitate to let me know)
Palmer 159 Andy Finch, alittle concerned that this board wont perform well in the powder.
Burtom 158 Custom, worried that my feet are to large for this board.
Palmer 158 Centric, not really sure if this board is freesytle of freeride focused, and maybe the mid-flex might be a problem in some areas.
thanks for the help !
