Snowboard equipment for tall/heavy/bigfeet

Hi!
I am new rider thinking to buy snowboard equipment. At 90Kgs and 1.95cm
I am considering to buy the Burton Cruzer 164 wide (actually this is
the only wide Burton board I can find in my price range). Because I
expect to ride a lot and I want some comfortable boots/bindings, I
intend to buy the Burton Freestyle or Ruler boots (size US11.5 -
EU45.5) and the Burton Mission bindings.

What do you think of the above combination? Is the board wide/long
enough for me. I usually prefer freeriding and I am not involved in
freestyle at all.

Thanx for your time.

Board is OK, consider stiffer hi backs or upgraded bindings and those
boots are a joke for big guys freeriding.
Get another company boot, like Northwave, if you want to freeride in
control.
Rulers are kids freestyle boots.
Buy LAST year's stuff, about 30% cheaper everywhere.

LeeD,
thanx for your reply.

If I stay with Burton (better deal if I buy from the same dealer/brand)
do you think that the Burton Freestyle boots would be a better choice?

Unfortunetely, it is difficult to find new last year's equipment in
Greece where I live. The winter season here is rather sort and the
store don't want to stock stuff...

Thanx again. Regards,

No, Freestyle is just that, made for lightweight kids who want to jib
around on flat doing butters, switchs, and tricky kids stuff.
Why would you think you get a better deal by sticking to same company
stuff, unless you're buying direct from them?
Burton makes the two higher end boots which are stiff and supportive.
They were not great sellers last year, so you should find them cheaper
than this year's Ruler or Freestyle.
Mission's should be stiff enough.
