Stamped Concrete or Kool Deck for my Pool Deck?

I am in the process of deciding what type of deck to install for my new pool. My contractor will install whatever I decide. Is Stamped Concrete better than Kool Deck? Which is cooler on the feet Stamped Concrete or Kool Deck?

1. I see no reason to believe one will be cooler than the other. It is really a matter of the color you choose. I think it is more a matter of what look you want. I believe regardless of which one you choose they will crack in time as almost all concrete slab do. With the stamped concrete the cracks will be less visible. We have a patio and three walks done with stamped concrete. We have enjoyed them very much and everyone who sees them thinks they are very attractive.
