That might be a financial question of course, but to me it seems more logical to increase the size of the kite if you would like to jump. If this is for a limited number of days I would look for a used 13m Rebel or something. A kite even I can jump with in sub 18 knots conditions with my +-100kg.

I just got a slingshot glide 151 and while it is approaching a door I feel like it still has qualities that keep it feeling like a smaller board. Primarily its weight.
Overall great board and can ride it in the lightest of winds.

I think if you’re talking Nomad then the light wind board is a standard shape. The wave board isn’t really for light winds although I find mine planes pretty well.
The new superleggera version is same construction as ccs wave and crazy light (1.5kg) but also craaazy expensive...
