Does anyone have any experience in using the trex select vs. enhance products? The enhance is the version that has the groves cut on the bottom, presumably to use less material. I am installing it on 16 inch centers and want to make sure I am not going to have excessive bounce. Thanks!

Having used both I prefer Azek decking the color does not fade and surface doesn't delaminate
Most decking manufactures say that a primary reason for the grooves is to reduce the amount of water that gets trapped between the deck board and top of the joists. And while grooves would help on that front, I'm thinking that having less material per board cost less to manufacture. Maybe it's just the cynic in me:) That said. I just installed enhance and have not received any complaints about bounciness.
I have had some experience with Trex enhance and I have not noticed a problem with bounciness on 16" center.
