Which is your favorite kite right now?

[NotsoShort]

Hard one to say

For a long time it was my 2012 10m rpm which I have stopped flying this year.

I decided to get a 9m raptor for a change , easy to boost, solid in some of the brutality gusty days of late.

Otherwise it’s has to be my Zephyr in 25knots boosting with massive hang time is awesome

My favorite kite at the moment is the Legion 7m from HB-Surfkite.
Extremely intuitive control of power and steering and with a massive range. It just feels very natural when waveriding. Hard to explain, but all seems so smooth, instantly dump some of the power when needed, when going over a wave, power up immediately afterwards. Good drift, instant response to aggressive steering. Really like a direct connection to the brain. You sort of forget the kite and focus on the ride. And it just works beautifully.
Got the 5, 7 and 9, but the 7 for me is really the magic size.

Light and tight, it's also good for foiling, although I typically go for the Peak.

As I don't have a Peak4 4m, my favorite kite is a Peak4 5m². The best kite I ever used , so fast, so nimble, so fun for hydrofoil. Perfect to have fun with little waves.

Favorite right now is a DEAD TIE between...

#1 - the new CORE XR7 which is not out yet but seems to hold lots of promise, fancier materials, cool colors, faster turning, lighter - faster - stronger etc. etc.

#2 - the new OR RISE A-Series which is also not out yet but holds lots of promise, fancier materials, cool colors, faster turning, lighter - faster - stronger etc. etc.

Gotta love these options...in this economy

8m and 11m Pivot.



I briefly rode a friends 14m Pivot (2020 model). I think I prefer my 14m Boxer for light wind riding. Feels lighter and more playful.

+2.

Love the 11 Pivot in the mid 20's range. Jumps great, flies fast, goes upwind, loops perfectly and is just super fun to ride.

Dirk I have the 14m Pivot too and it's a very good 14m kite....much better than others I've tried and not a total dog. It's a great kite to learn stuff on in lighter, less heroic winds.

I bought a 16m Boxer for light breeze, last ditch effort wind/vacation kite.

I've also got an 11m Pivot, 2018 model, and like it a lot, but if at all possible I go with the 10m. I've always been curious about the larger sizes, and heard some good things about the 12m, however I once tried a friends 14m, not sure of the year, and really found it too grunty and power was either all on or off. Maybe the newer versions are better.
