I'm looking for an allround kite that is for good jumping, ideally with a large wind rage.
So far, I've been using Naish (Ride), F-one (Bandit) and Gaastra kites, not a huge fan of those :) mostly driven by good deals from local kiteshops.

Sure :) I'm advanced in freeride, but only starting with freestyle. Comfortable with small jumps and back/front rolls.
Looking for ~10-12m 4 line kite that can take me to 15-20 feet jumps :)

Demo an ozone edge v9. You wont regret it

virtually ANY kite can get you into the 20 foot jump range. Some will offer more glide though and need less technique to land softly.

You'll need to buy a kite from usa to jump 15-20 feet, All Australian kites are sold with metric conversion

Do yourself a favor and give an Airush Union 3 a demo.
It's a great all rounder and with good technique it goes massive

i ride a naish dash and i find it really quick kite, great for overpowered jumps and great for kite looping as the bar pressure isnt that much. it drifts as well for in the surf when riding downwind and it doesnt back stall when unhooking a bit underpowered. im really happy with it. bandit is also good. same sort of kite i rkn. i know kite addiciton doing a big sale on them as the kite is about 1 year old now, should of waited till now and paid a lot less :S nothing like getting a bargain!

in all serious though, the union, fx, envy and dice/vegas core etc all go big and are good for corss over to unhooking

Thank you all for great tips.
@dafish and @Hybrid_Z: Sure, I can refine my technique, but why not getting some help for a kite, if possible.
@glasstraxx Great piece of advice, I have two Naish Ride kites (7 and 11m) and 9m F-one Bandit, and find them very different. I find Bandit less stable, while Ride seems more jump friendly, thus my interests in Dash.

I have to admit it is the ksurf kite rank that got me to think about other brands: www.iksurfmag.com/awards/readers-awards-2017/best-kite-manufacturer-of-2017/

Why don't you publish your woo results Glen.
Might just show how ordinary kiter you are on a kite specifically designed to jump big.

Reality check for all those who believe their equipment is holding them back.

U right, enough said.

somehow we do not see Edges winning the RedBull king of air, dont we?

But we see ppl winning races, so....

Ozone would just love to win over all of us, but that wont happen. The durability of Edges are just not there.

Any Flysurfer Boost2
would outjump an Edge, and a lot of other kites would too, ie Screamer. 5 lines kites too. They do drop u, and Edge does not, providing u redirect.

Hahaha....depower??....pfffffft

Lou: "just get me two lines, a piece of cloth and a bar....I'll work it out"

thanks for for the inspiration!

Could always just look at the Woo results for Oz and see who's boosting highest and what they are using. Website doesn't let you drill down but the phone app will.

Of course big difference in heights depending on if you are kiting waves or in a bay and the ramps you get there. Personally on a 12m Cab Switchblade in bayside chop it will get my 95kg averaging around 7m up in the air, maxing out at about 10-11m (based on Woo results). That being said, I'm regularly beaten by 1-2m in the stats by a local bloke on a North Rebel, and 5m+ by guys on a surf beach.

For jumps and hang-time you cant go past Flysurfer speed's

I reckon they should ban people from recommending the kite brand they currently own.

Otherwise it's like inviting a pimp into your wife's bed.

Technique is in fact my priority, I do the best I can on this front :) but my old Naish Ride doesn't really help in learning kite loops. Anyways, I need to update my quiver, so why not getting a more playful kite...
