closed toe....why all the haters?

So whats up with everyone hating closed toe bindings?

They are more comfy and better fitting then open toed bindings. They give the rider more of a snowboarding feel, which to me, makes me feel more in control.

I also think there is a whole lot more opertunity to improve closed toe bindings (asteticly and functionaly).

I think closed toe are the way of the future for wakeboard bindings. Look at Watsons 07 bindings.....closed toe. Ronix....closed toe.
