Not seen many reviews of these kites ... look like they could be good for boosting.
How do they handle gusts? How is the airframe? Looks like tiny struts and LE... ?

I have a 13m and 18m Vantage I use for foiling, good kites, Have to pump up to 10psi or LE can deform is gusts. The 13m has 6 struts, 18m 3 struts and is designed for light wind, Its super light weight kite too. Both kites jump good, and handle gusts real good due to they are High aspect race kites. The Super huge V6 bridles helps with de power.

They are good boosting kites, but they will buckle if loaded by a heavy rider.

I've seen an 11m pop firsthand, not due to a crash. Heavier rider though.
