Answer 3

It will defiantly effect your turning! you  should get a new board a wider board!

Answer 4

If your toes or heals touch ground when carving, it will be very unstable when you get to steeper runs.  The most important part of the controlling your board is that edge.  Because of your shoe size, you may need to go with a wide board.  Also try changing your stance to have your toes pointing out more(duck stance.)  

Answer 5

No. The only thing you should worry about is if your heels or your toes hanging off the board. If you feel that you need adjustment, they have something called binding risers which will lift the binding off the board and will allow you to turn even if your heels and toes are hanging off the board.

Answer 6

When you say your "toe and heel are lined up exactly with the rails of the board" - that makes it sound like when you have your boots on they do NOT hang over the edge of your snowboard - that would NOT be a problem.

If your actual feet (without boots) line up, it depends how big your boots are. If you have any more than 1/4" of your boots hanging over the edges of your board AFTER you have chosen and set your binding angles - you could have a problem.

A wider board, bindings with a "lifter", or possibly smaller outline boots would help you get less overhang. Too much, and you could be touching the snow when you get good enough to carve or drop into a half pipe - if the boot touches the edge will loose some of its pressure and the edge can skip out.

If you need a wide board, forget about Burton - look at Rome, K2, Ride.

Good Luck
