I own frs and test it with soul back to back many times. 9m frs vs 8m soul. Imo soul jumps higher. Frs is better kite though in every other way. Its more freeride hydrofoil specific. Power dewelopment is far more contolable. This is very important on big hf wings. More like peaks in good way.

if you want to go sub 10 - 1500 cm2 wing instead longer lines give you much more fun. 1500 wings are also really pump-able which add another level of fun - powerless wave to wave. I now tend riding 1500 wing all the time /moses 790 instead 633/ - Its Peak kite size difference between them in power ...

imo 3,4,5 and other kite is still best option other kite can be FRS or Ozone Alpha or whatever Anyway using 1500 cm wing sub 10 knots wind is possible with 5. But still other kites are just more suitable to 8 - 11 knots than Peaks. But as others im often using Peaks from pure laziness in this range....

I own a quiver of Clouds and a quiver of Peaks (5/4/3) for kitefoiling only. Unless you want to kitefoil in waves (and this is not your case) peaks have no added value compared to Clouds. If you want to ride in flat water and do some tricks, using a big wing and thus riding a small kite, then nothi...

Personaly, I'm looking for kite to ride slow and playful on a big wing (1200), flat water. Learn turns, ride strapless and so on...

there is no better kite for this than Peak 4. And by very large margin

How about the Peak4 on snow? What size should I get for my light wind kite? I'm 140 lbs, on skis and very experienced. Light wind ,uphill, deep powder = 13m Light wind, flat, packed snow, = 8m or 11m Thanks, Have you ever used the 5m on snow? What kinds of winds? Can't imagine I'll get much use of ...

Light kite have less peak power than heavy kite. Reason for this is you can directly change kite forward speed momentum for lift. Heavy kite have more momentum = more energy to change for lift Sorry to say tomtom, but this is definitely not true... dont have time for explaining and arguing. Things ...

Peak power = power spike
