The PS is strictly for schools. I don't think you want this kite past the initial schooling days. Go RS rather.

Agree with @daspi. I’ve had the pleasure of trying PS, RS and FS models and you can start from scratch on the RS, imo. Excellent all-round/cross-over kite. All the models are great and I’m sure it’s only a matter of time before Eleveight becomes a big player.

Still they can give more interesting and conceptual names- as for example FFF or SSS ( or at least FF or RR) because fs asociate much more with flysurfer short version. PS with post scriptum much more. Not reflected individuality of kite in such two only letter names. I think they definitely must change their kite names to more clear and conceptual version.

FS - Freestyle Series
WS- Wave Series
RS - (All)Round Series
PS - Progression Series

There is a logic behind it ;)
