slingshot fuel 9m high end

[vassilief]

Ok there is never more wind than 35knts on the beach we usually kite. so i think about getting a 9m fuel for medium to high wind kite. slingshot giving a range of 20-30, anybody tried to ride 9m to wind 30+ (Rubens opinion will not be taken into consideration ) ?? what do u think, should I get an 7m? Im 75kilos not really expirienced but looking to get better !!!

If your bigger kite will take you into the 20's, Go for the 7 - you can take the 9 over 30, but the 7 will be much more fun - I bought 07 fuels and kicked my self in the ass everyday this winter wishing I had got a 7 instead of 9 - The 7 will go about as far as you want to go in top end and the 9 gets really juicy over 30

I weigh 90kgs and can ride the 9 on a surfboard just powered at 16kn.at 25, I need to use some depower. On a twin tip, 23 just powered for tricks and I've only had it to 30kn. thats when its fun...

I'm always getting overpowered on my 9m fuel when the wind gets above 30 kts. I weigh about 160 lbs.

thanks for the info guys! olso whats better, bow for light wind and c for high wind? what sizes are better if you like to have a bow and a c kite as a 2kite quiver??? i personally dont like big kites and preffer using a big board for light winds (138x44), so what is best kite combo for 11-30+ knots? summer winds usually 11-18, winter 18-25 except 10days per year 25-35.
