I'm a noob. I know prefer more a "loose" feel (avid snowboarder, very noob wakeboarder). I appreciate any insight anyone can give.
I've seen a lot of newer wb's have four molded in fins.

What is the advantage of having a board (primarily in how it rides) of having the four molded in fins versus a flat bottom board?

With removing the center fins, I would assume this would make any board I pick up give that "looser" feel. Would the 4 molded fins/channels give some stability when it comes to edging with the 2 center fins removed?

yah that's the general idea...when neutral itll have a loose feeling but when on edge it should track like usual with the molded fins...basically it makes it easier to break free while riding neutral for surface slides while maintaining normal edge capabilities.
