Opinions on the Best High Wind Kite

Yeh I think the jellyfish is the thing I've battled with in high winds. Because the rebel sits back in the window, probably reduces this. Will demo one asap, cheers dave.

Hey Marv,

I had about 1 inch of depower and was LIT! Keeping the speed down on the board and the kite at or below 45 degrees makes for easy control. approach the launch spot, bring kite up smoothly and sheet in, crank the turn and hold the edge the best you can, that's it. Hardest part is slowing down after the kite loop at the end of the jump, the downwind speed is very hard to wash off without advanced riding techniques ie carving away from the kite to push it to neutral and reduce board speed.

Super fun! I'd recommend to the average rider not to fly the Edge 11m in more than about 25-28 unless you know what you are doing. I weigh close to 90 kilos FYI

The Best High wind kite... is made by Heinz

The difference being Griffin were the orig innovators of the centreless strut design and have refined it over the years to what it is today,rather than other manufacturers who have copied the concept and given it a go without much success.
These kites are stable as and dump power so quick they are a joy to ride especially in gusty conditions,thats where they excell the most.

What does that mean. Can we have a post with a frank discussion without the 'Pimp' bull****. Piss off if you have nothing constructive to say. Stop wasting peoples precious seconds. I'm sure you are a top bloke with a genuine concern, but not here mate, go and whinge on another post - there are plenty out there where you can dump the pimp crap on people.

Pimp away....
