Wonderful kite, but me too I've got problems with the valves of all my Wainman kites. Ok it isn't so difficult to repair...but it isn't surely what I desired from my new kites. I had this problem with all my 2013 Wainman kites (I change them every year).
Smoke is a perfect allround kite. My weight is 76 kg, I use from 14 to 25knt in see water, if stronger wind I prefer Mr. Green 7.5. In the lake, from 14 knt on I use the Boss.
And... the bar has really a great pressure on the arms. You can like it or not, but the pressure is really strong compared with other kites. And surfing strappless sometimes I'd prefer a lighter bar pressure.
Anyway, really allround-easy relaunch kites. But the valves...be ready to repair them!!
