1. A mounting disk for easily selectively mounting a base plate of a snowboard binding to a snowboard in a first position having a three mounting hole pattern and a second position having a four mounting hole pattern, said mounting disk comprising:i. a first and a second elongated openings each having a width, a length substantially greater than said width, and a longitudinal axis substantially parallel to each other, wherein said firs elongated opening is sized and shaped to enable adjustment along at least one direction substantially parallel to a longitudinal face of said snowboard such that said first elongated opening accepts two mounting means while said mounting disk is disposed in either said first or said second position, and said second elongated opening is sized and shaped to enable a two-dimensional adjustment along a plane substantially parallel to said longitudinal face of said snowboard such that said second elongated opening accepts a single mounting means while said mounting disk is disposed in said first position and two mounting means while said mounting disk is disposed in said second positionii. a plurality of mounting flanges adapted to be placed in said openings, each mounting flange being adapted to matingly engage with one of said mounting means; andiii. an outer edge adapted to matingly engage with said base plate. 2. A mounting disk for a snowboard binding as described in claim 1 wherein the mounting disk is round. 3. A mounting disk for snowboard binding as described in claim 2 wherein the underside of said outer edge is provided with engagement means. 4. A mounting disk for a snowboard binding as described in claim 3 wherein said engagement means are a plurality of projections. 5. A mounting disk for snowboard binding as described in claim 3 wherein said engagement means are a plurality of cones. 6. A mounting disk for a snowboard binding as claimed in claim 2 wherein a recess is provided on both sides of each said openings and wherein a plurality of engagement means are provided therein. 7. A mounting disk for a snowboard binding as claimed in claim 6 wherein such engagement means are a series of vertically extending projections. 8. A mounting disk for a snowboard binding as claimed in claim 6 wherein such engagement means are a series of vertically extending teeth or ridges. 9. A mounting disk for a snowboard binding as claimed in claim 7 wherein the underside of each end of each said mounting flanges is shaped such that it is matingly engageable with said projections. 10. A mounting disk for a snowboard binding as claimed in claim 8 wherein the underside of each end of each said mounting flanges is shaped such that it is matingly engageable with said teeth or ridges. 11. The mounting disk as claimed in claim 1 wherein said first elongated opening is sized and shaped to enable a two-dimensional adjustment along a plane substantially parallel to said longitudinal face of said snowboard. 12. The mounting disk as claimed in claim 11 wherein said first and said second elongated openings include a first and a second side wall, respectively, which are proximate each other and a third and a forth side wall, respectively, which are distal from each other, wherein one mounting means is disposed within said first elongated opening proximate said first side wall and two mounting means are disposed within said second elongated opening proximate said second side wall when said mounting disk is disposed in said first position, and wherein two mounting means are disposed within said first slot proximate said third side wall and two mounting means are disposed within said second elongated opening proximate said fourth side wall when said mounting disk is disposed in said second position. 13. A mounting disk for easily selectively mounting a base plate of a snowboard binding to a snowboard in a first position having a three mounting hole pattern and second position having a four hole mounting pattern, said mount ing disk comprising:i. a center;ii. a first elongated opening having a longitudinal axis, a first side wall which is distal from said center, and a second side wall which is proximal from said center, wherein one mounting means is disposed proximate said second side wall when said mounting disk is disposed in said first position and two mounting means are disposed proximate said first side wall when said mounting disk is disposed in said second position;iii. a second elongated opening having a longitudinal axis substantially parallel to said longitudinal axis of said first elongated opening, a third side wall which is distal from said center, and a fourth side wall which is proximal from said center, wherein two mounting means are disposed proximate said fourth side wall when said mounting disk is disposed in said first position or are disposed proximate said third side wall when said mounting disk is disposed in said second position;iv. a plurality of mounting flanges adapted to be placed in said openings, each mounting flange being adapted to matingly engage with one of said mounting means; andv. an outer edge adapted to matingly engage with said base plate. 14. The mounting disk as claimed in claim 13 wherein said first elongated opening is sized and shape to enable adjustment along at least one direction substantially parallel to a longitudinal face of said snowboard and said second elongated opening is sized and shaped to enable a two-dimensional adjustment along a plane substantially parallel to said longitudinal face of said snowboard.
