depends very much on the kites involved, the baords and the riders.

Make all the variables the same and the answer is yes, change any of them and the answer might very well be no.

well you have to consider what brand the kite was and the year. for example an 12m 04 Best kite wouldnt ride as powerfully as the 9m 05 fuel. As fuels are very fast turning they can create that apparent wind better. and all up slingshots are very well designed.
