check the '08 boots first to see what you think as for robbing of flex, i don't know if anyone could truly say how much of a difference it really makes. i personally like not only the idea of getting all the flex possible (despite the significance involved or not involved) but i li8ke the idea of a 4 hole mount pattern and i like the slingshot base plate with the on-the-fly adjustments which comes ESPECIALLY handy when i share my board with others to try. I bet within 2 years most of the wake companies will provide mounting patterns for both styles, just like closed toe has become an option provided by all the wake companies now. So you will have other options in the future for the 4 hole mounting. from the recent pics of co. wake's proto, i expect co. wake will be the next 4 hole boot provider.
