Hey all
Been riding for 9m waroo for 2.5 yrs since new. Has got me into nice powered jumps and transtions but look to upgrade as it is my only kite and gets lots of use.
I have only ever flown the waroo and my mates new 8m switchblade.
Not looking for a C kite but would like some opinions on the next kite to buy.

If that's a picture of your ass on your avatar I would suggest a 20mtr delta shaped kite.
But seriously i think any new SLE kite you buy. once you get used to it you will love it.. Just look for the best deal you can get.

Yeah they all seem simular at the moment, I'd be checkin out a deal too. You'd get used to whatever you get after a while, and if you wanna jump big it's prob more to do with the rider then the kite

Demoing kites is so much fun. Just go to your localkiteshop with a sixpack every time it's cranking and demo a new one every time for your next 6 goes. I demoed a 12m bandit dos in 25 knots of wind and I weigh about 75kg. One of the greatest afternoons of my life, I was pretty sure I was going to die.

I agree with cronic. Try the 2010 helix, 7 and 10.5 or 9 and 12, depends on what the winds doing most of the time. They take a bit of getting used to but once your dialed into these kites you'll wonder why you've been on waroos for so long. Gotta edge harder than regular kites, try one out.
