Hi everybody,
I plan to replace my actual North Dice 8 and 5m² per 2 Reo V5 8 and 5m².
After reading your comments on the reo V5 5m² I'm not sure doing the right choice.
The best thing would be to test it myself but unfortaunaltly nobody on my spot (Wissant France) use the reo V5 5m².
I will be very interesting by additional comments if anyone else has alraedy test the Reo V5 sprecially in 5m².
Thanks in advance for your answers.
Ronan

Flew my Reo V4 5m² in wind of 40 knots saturday...
Did even not touch the depower strap. Flew with my 45 cm bar and 23 meter lines.
I'm pretty happy with this kite, and I don't think there is anything wrong with it... it is fast... very fast... but usable for me...
It was set in the fastest turning mode (back lines at the back), next time I'll set it in the slower mode.
This kite is not grunty at all, even in those high winds you really have to move it to gain speed. But once the board is on speed, you can just park it...
I never flew any other 5, so I cannot compare... but this kite works for me... i'll keep it...
pfff.
