I’m 26 and I have been skating on and off since I was 6 years old, I will tell you guys that if your shoe size is around 11 and your 5-11 6 feet like me. I would recommend going with a 7.75 to 8inch width of board if you are going to do trick skating. If your a little smaller and your shoe size is about 7-10 then a 7.5 or 7.6 is a good way to go.

Your feet are pretty small so 7.5 is good for you , but if you feel unconfortable you can always try a bigger size , thats the good part about a skateboard deck , its all a matter of comfort , if you like the feel of , say , a size 8.5 deck theres nothing to stop you form using it, but yeah , for you feet its a pretty good deck size

they come in different sizes because people come in different sizes.
A little kid would feel good on a 7.5 but try putting a guy with a 12 size shoe on one and they will feel unconfortable.
That guy will feel alot better on a 8.0 or bigger board but the kid will feel unconfortable.
