If you get the response its so sweet. Best board I have riden behind the kite. They have loads of pop, and are the best on sliders by far. Also its tight that you can still ride them behind the boat or at the cable.

The recoil is also a tight board, but it has a little to much rocker to ride behind the kite. You can still do it but going upwind is not the nicest. I also feel like the response has a lot more pop behind the kite than the recoil.

I'm riding a response behind the boat and on the cable. Tons of pop, super soft landings, and indestructible on the sliders. Bindings are really easy to get into, super cush, and ton of support with a snowboard boot like feel.

To preempt another photo removal, I'd like to discourage Bulae99 from offering a photo of himself riding a Response while laying a cable.
