I've been flying a 12m Airush One, for the last 2 years and love it.
Easy relaunch, fun to fly, fun jumps.
You'll be wondering what all the struts on other kites are for (remember the Cabrinha kite from 2007 that had 7 struts!)
A couple minor details about a 1 strut kite.
- It's harder to walk with upside down than other kites. The single strut drags on the ground. This makes a walk-of-shame, more shameful.
- It flaps like crazy when parked on the beach, you really need to deflate the strut (as recommended by Airush), if you plan on parking it for any period of time.
- You'll love how fast it pumps up.
