Does your board make a difference?

This may sound like a lame question but I am somewhat new in the wakeboarding scene and I have a board that is somewhat flat on the bottom with no molded fins in the fiberglass of the board. My questions:

What difference does the size of your board make on your ride? (more pop, more tricks??)

What difference does the size of your fins make for your ride?

and last but not least

What is the difference between the molded fins that are in advanced boards and the flat begginner boards that do not have the molded fins?

Thanks for the input. I am about to make the plunge into getting an advanced board and I want to make sure that the money is worth it.

what is the best board and binding setup for the money???
