Ocean rodeo razor gen 7 (2019) opinion?

[szert]

Anyone owns or tried Ocean Rodeo Razor ?

I'm looking to expand my quiver, with a 14m kite and I found a good deal on a 2019 gen 7 razor.

But I never tried a C shaped kite and unsure if it's a good choice for me.

I'm intermediate, mostly freeriding, progressing in jumps and enjoying waves sometime.

14m? What wind are you typically using it in and what size are you?

The Razor is a very responsive kite, it's great for powered riding so powered loops, and has a really quick and vertical yank off the water when boosting. Depending on your level, you may be more apt for a OR Prodigy or Flite.

I have a 7 - 9 - 12m quiver and sharing it with my gf (i.e. I use one size up). Around 12-14 knots it's a bit too much work on a TT and my gf is bored on the beach
Agree, Prodigy / Flite seems better but no bigger sizes available on the sale (50%+ discount...). So I just wondering if it is stupid to buy a 14m C kite. It's difficult without being able to try them.

Umm.......I wouldn't say it's stupid. The 14m Razor will definitely be pretty responsive for a 14m kite. That and at that size you may want something that leans towards responsiveness if you are looking to ride twintip mostly.

For a 14m for ligth wind I would go with the Flite 14.5 it's designed for ligth wind it's ligth and will stay in the air better it's got more low-end power and it's quite responsive for a big kite jumps well and relaunch better.

The 14 Razor is for a heavy weight to use when others are on 10 or 12 m kites. A light wind kite for the average weight rider would be the Ocean Rodeo Flite. 14.5 m kite.
