So I got a killer deal on a 10 metre BWS Noise V2, brand new... base don the reviews on here they are a sweet kite but I a bit confused on the sizing. I've got a 12m Naish torch and just wondering how the two kites compare at the bottom end ( I know they are completly different kites).
I'm 88 kgs just wondering what sort of bottom end I can expect on a 139 x 41 twintip or a surfboard? similar to the Torch?

I am a fair bit heavier than you at 105kgs and can just hold ground at around 15 knots with the 10 m bws pro on a surfboard, on a twin tip I would need more like 17 or 18 knots. I have ridden it in around 30 knots but that wasn't so much fun, I can maintain control but it's a bit dodgy

How do you know when it is 15 knots or 17 knots?

at 17 knots sand will start blowing on the beach. Ten knots white caps start, 24 knots white caps will fold on themselves.
