Just getting up on the board now. Currently have an Older Slingshot Rev2 11m but would like something with some more low end grunt. Can any one suggest a good kite for my weight and conditions. Im 100kgs and riding in flat water, wind is ranging mainly from 10-15 Knots. It has been suggested either North Evo 12m or Cabrina Switchblade 14m.? Cheers

Will depend a lot on what board you have (how big, twin tip, surf board)
I'm 97kg and ride a 12 (switchblade) great in 18knts and above, rideable in 12-15knts but pretty underdone depedant on your riding style. I have a 16 for light wind days. Have not ridden a 14, mainly because the 12-16 quiver works well for my weight and the typical gold coast winds, and because IMO it would be a bit of a compromise, re: not quite enough on light days and too much on windy days.
I ride a 138x42 twin tip.
