Anyone riders that have or used the latest GTS can you comment on the performance of this kite in the bigger sizes?
I weigh 76kg and looking at upgrading/adding a new kite and want something for those lighter days (13-19knots). I know the low end isn't going to compare to a xr4, but is there a bit of grunt in the latest GTS4?
I did have an xr4 12m but at my size would often pull my downwind, my thinking is a GTS4 would be a better alternative, plus low wind wave option and freestyle benefits (my main reason for buying). Is the 11m much more lively/fun then 12m aswell?

I have been riding a 8 & 11m core gts4 for the past 2 months.
I weigh 81kg it it cover the full wind range on the gold coast for me.
I personally do not like any kite over 11m as i find them all too slow and would prefer to use a larger board.
If you are intermediate to advanced in all disciplines then this is the kite you want.
solid grunty power and better response compared to the xr4 i have also used a few times.

Thanks for sharing - that actually looks pretty loopable for a 12!
