I wish they made the choice in a 145 like the response. Would be stoked to try it out, they claim that by not having the ES base it's 1.5 lbs lighter than the Response.
I love the response, but the 2013 seemed it was stiffer and a bit heavier than the 2012, and the 2014 I got this year definitely feels stiffer/heavier with the ES base.
I guess there could be some break-in factor, but my 2012 was puuuurfect when I blew the fast track out and had to retire it. That was at the end of it's second season of hard boat and cable riding though. I rode a ton on my 2014 this year and it still feels a bit stiffer than the 2012 I had. Also definitely heavier. So I would love to try the choice but can't ride a 142 board.
