maybe it's at an optimum "size vs turning speed" ratio to generate enough bottom end pull...
or maybe the dude doing the ad was tired and made a typo...

Is 'All roo - No bull' a typo as well? I hope it is, cos it means absolutely NOTHING and isn't cool either.

I would say it's just saying it can fly in light wind for beginners etc...
"All roo" Is just a bit of a play on words.

Come on guys, why do you have to be so negative all the time? would it hurt you to be positive once in a while? I for one celebrate the return of this kite. Thank you Jesus.

you can fly it in 12 knot winds if you have a 15kn current against you. also how could it be a typo if the graph shows the same. it stand out like dog balls. I say crappy marketing ploy to suck in nubes.

Didn't the same typo appear in the 09 blurbs? Maybe it was another brand but I thought it was a Best add from last year?

How sweet would a 40kt windrange be tho!? Yee kn harrr!

Best is best in marketing there is no doubt about that you have to admire them for that, just go to Best forum, most of those people have been brain washed its unbelievable but its true- spread the love spread the Best, Amen.

maybe if you are an 8 year old girl with no legs and you are lying on a 9 ft mal the 5m kite will get you going in 12 knots. alternately if you weigh 125kg and ride a 118 with bindings you could comfortably use the 15 in 24 knots, or the 13 in 27 knots.

What is it with these charts kites in x amount of wind .A true chart would have if you weigh x amount . Then this kite would be good in this wind . I know there are other factors like board size but in general the kite size too weight size too wind speed would make a more relastic chart . oh no i might have stumbled onto somethink here and the big companines thought we were all dumb .
