I tried already the trigger 10 2013 in 14-22 kts wind. The air time is sick!
The problem is that i was trying the kite with some old blade bar.
I saw a prototype of the new uni bar and it's do look nice.
Looking forward to test the whole package.

I'm planing to purchase the 2013 trigger but i don't know which size to get. I'm riding only on one size.
My weight is 75kg and I'm riding 134 cm board.
For 15-25 KTS winds when most of the time the wind is around 20 KTS.
For old school and free ride what is more suitable size for me?

If you are not looping like crazy and you don't unhook a lot then go for the 10m for sure.
It's a great kite.
