high as a kite said...

Hi,
Anyone out there tried the 15m SS Octane yet as a light wind wave kite?
Review would be appreciated.

Currently got a good light wind kite for flat water cruising. Kite is to slow and bar pressure to heavy in waves.

Looking for a kite with good bottom end BUT LIGHT on the bar.

Hey HAAK, try jennycraigformen, get rid of your bottom end and your 13 will be just fine dems fightin words

PS: I lost the airush cap you gave me

HAAK, on a serious note, check out the BOM stats for Aireys Inlet today (Tues) 5pm - 6pm. Very marginal winds sub 10 knots most of the time.

I had the 2010 15m Wainman "Big Mother" out at Danger.

I was on my trusty Stonker 135 tt, flat water no swell, I was holding ground most runs in and out, went down wind only about 50m or so a few times. We are about the same weight, heavy boned

Even in the marginal winds it still turned quite fast, 3 strut, nice bar setup, trim cleat above the bar, low bar pressure ( bar pressure was about the same as my 12m Flow FT ) and plenty of tuning options, very nice feel for a big kite and it is a big kite. This might be the kite you are looking for.

Next time you are over see Alex and demo it.

The 14m have about 2 knots more low end.
Maybe the Wainman could be a good solution.
I liked very much the 12m, low end very similar to the Ozone XC 12m.
So probably the 15m has more low the the XC 14m.
Bye Jankie
