Hey all....I am in the market for a new board...I have size 12 boots and
wonder if I need a wide board?...The soles of my boots are 12.5 inches in
length.
I use a duck stance .
Thanks,

Unless you don't get onto your edges very far, then you probably do need a
wide board. I don't imagine duck stance angles are very steep.

Check the overhang that your toes and heels have. Have a look at the FAQ
as well to see what to do with such information.

The answer is: it depends. :)

Here's a previous thread where we threw some (high school) science and
math at the problem, and still came up with the answer "it depends"!

Yep, thanks for that Mike... it's in my pending updates to the FAQ as
well.
