Im 95kg and currently ride a 12m cult. I'm looking for a kite that will turn fast but give me loads of grunt in 18 to 22knots any ideas. I ride a 136 z series aboard.

Doesnt the 12m Cult have any grunt in 18-22 knts? I thought that would have been it's sweet spot?

I took both these kites out on demo and found that the rhino turned faster and had plenty more grunt than the cult. The cult was still a great kite though, just my opinion.
I weigh 100kg and decided to buy an 08 14mtr rhino, the wind we get is a little lower than what your experiancing.
Hope this helps
cheers

I think the Rhino will win hands down if your looking for more grunt , I feel the cults are a nice kite up to the 10.5 but anything bigger they are a bit slow like most bridled kites.

As for the 12 cult having grunt in 18 to 22 knots its got heaps that would have to be the kites sweet spot about 18 to 25 knots.

Thanks for the replies. The cult is a sweet kite and has grunt in 18 to 22knots but I want more. The Rhino sounds like the go though.

Anyone trading up from an 08 Rhino when the 09s come out let me know.
