Have 8 10 14 meter 2012 parks ,bar pressure is light yet you know exactily where kites is in sky,main reason i got parks was because of serious elbow problems,since getting parks i have had no problems,you can also change bar pressure i have it in middle setting. Low end is as good if not better than any kite i have used,i beleive from reviews 2011 parks low end not as good but i can assure you 2012 low end is good,Turning speed is amazing especially for wave riding it turns on a dime.High end eg if i am out on 10 and other people out on 10 i have had many sessions where they have had to come in because they were completely over powered,i had no problems wind range is amazing,park 14 meter i just got,had it out in very marginal sessions,,what i call marginal 11 to 13 knots this kites on surfboard rides toeside as well if not better than hell side which i find is great because i am goofy its turns fast for 14 meter .i am sure this kite on slingshot glide 10 knots,my weight is 80kg.these are the most user frindly kites i have ever had ,hope this helps tony

Tony, thanks for your comments.

One more question, at wich wind speed do you start using the do you start using the 10mtr?

I usually ride Wainman Rabbits.
I have a 9 and a 12 mt. (I can stay upwind with the 12 mtr when the wind is over 15 knots)

Just to compare the low end.

Thanks.

Tio

16 knots 10 meter stay up wind 20 meter lines,on underground free wave.At 16 knots pretty well powered for wave riding ,my weight 80 kg;steering lines on knot nearest bar,kite leading edge set to most grunt,park is a very easy kite to tune for different conditions with extensions slightly more low end,whats your weight 15 knots seems a lot for 12 meter,hope this helps tony

I am 105kg and have 2012 Parks 12m+9m. Obviously it is very dependent on wind/board/style, but if I had my druthers I would go 14m+10m.
