Paul, I aggree with Leo that towers are better. But being 15, Im betting you dont have a grand to drop on a tower. If you need a universal pylon, check this website out
www.bigairpylons.com.
Yes they do flex more, and yes when you cut hard you can actually turn the boat somewhat, although that is probably determined by what type of boat you are putting it on. But they do help tremendously. And you are saving yoruself about $700. Also check around on ebay. There is another company that sells out there. I believe they are called "2ndwake pylons".
