Actually, I spoke with someone from or and they told me Flite turns quicker than razor at the 14m sizes. I will probably just go with 12m and bigger board for light wind and just work the kite more to make up for the smaller size.

With the new design, it would seem to make self tethered launches more difficult? Can anyone comment on this? Edited.... I guess this only applies to the rope kit.

Bump

Lines suck either way. Throughout the years I’ve noticed north lines deteriorate pretty quickly. It sucks, because their kites are great and last a very long time. Honestly, I would not buy duatone kites again,due to the shitty lines. Mucho sucko

Had a kid two years ago, so I haven’t kited in two years... no time. I did get into powered paragliding.... So fatherhood only brought you to the brink, not over the edge? That’s encouraging... :naughty: Seriously, there are things more important and better than sports. Respect and best wishes! Do ...

Getting back to kiting, kid will love it

Yeah... I feel you. Had a kid two years ago, so I haven’t kited in two years... no time. I did get into powered paragliding.....which is fucking awesome and a lot less time consuming. Why have you lost the kite feeling? I haven’t lost shit, but time. Now the boy is older I’m back on track.

Bump.

I’ve trimmed up quite a bit. 140lbs. My light wind kite is a 17m Flite and is really now to big for me. I noticed ocean rodeo now has a 14m razor. Is this a viable light wind option comparable to the 14.5 flight?. Can someone provide feedback with wind range and turn speed?

I’ve paid less for brand new kites.
