I'm thinking buy a slingshot response. I got the chance to ride a reflex and response at the new cable park in Minnesota and really enjoy them.I snowboard alot and I like the way their boards flex like a snowboard. What I have been told about the recoil( I have not ridden one) is it is very poppy, where I think I would be happier with the repsonse. I'm just looking for other people opinions on their wakeboards.

I've been on the response and the recoil... I like the recoil way more, but have always liked 3-stage boards

well the board I am riding on now is the LF S4 which I have only ridden behind the boat not in the Cable and the Slingshot I only rode in the cable park. I have talked to a slingshot rep and the guys at the park and they said I should get response but I a.m looking for others opinions

i know people are going to try to disagree with me, but dude, your going to get way more pop on that s4

Haven't ridden a Response but have spent a lot of time behind a boat on the Recoil and Reflex and like the Reflex better It is a good bit faster than Recoil, a little looser, and not sure the pop is much different than the Recoil.

Haven't ridden the response, but like Nick, I enjoy 3-stage boards so I have a recoil and I love it.

get the relex. its in between the response & the recoil. i have owned all three. the recoil was a little too slow, the response way too fast. the reflex is perfect. i know the reflex is marketed kinda as a cable board, but all i do is ride behind the boat. if you aren't sure, i would recommend the reflex!!!!!!!
