Anyone have a go on the latest wings or a 2023 that don't command premium dollars and still perform at a top level? Priority is upwind-downwind, fast, neutral for tacking and riding swells and waves, easy to pump onto plane in large chop, doesn't pull steady requiring a harness. Winds 15-30, so typically a 4-5.5 sizing. Available in USA. The Ozone Flow seems the call, but I can't get a good deal on one yet, nor try before I buy!
Thanks in advance.

I thought it was name your own price in the US due to massive oversupply. Haven't Mac Kiting got a heap of runout kites particularly Cabrinha wings which are pretty well regarded?

The 2023 Mantis is on closeout and is available. Is this what you were thinking?

Vision is kind of love/hate. Wouldn't recommend that wing unless you've tried it first. Mantis is a great option for the $ and right up there with all of the good wings that I've tried.
