Hi everyone,

I was looking for some informations about crazyfly sculp kite, no matter wich year as i understand that they are very similar and they did small adjustement on the 2012 models.
I'm looking for a pretty fast kite with good lift and hangtime, a really good "going back up" at the end of a loop, really good upwind.
I can't find anything about the wind range so i don't know if i should go on 9 or 11m for my 75kg for a wind range of 12/13 - 30 knots between a surf board and a 132/41 TT :roll:
Many thanks for the help!!! :thumb:

Hi,

I'm using both 11 and 9 CrazyFly sculp.
the kite cnoopy is the same for 2011 model and 2012 model, there are only changes in the bar, and better bridles and pully in the 2012 model.
as well one-pump is better.
but bottom line 2011 and 2012 act the same in the air.

for my weight, 80kg and using 132X41 Raptor Pro & Raptor Pro LTD.

sculp11 will do great job from 13-26K sweet spot for high jump above 19K
sculp9 will do great job from 16-32K sweet spot for high jump above 23K

if the wind you are going to use the kite is more around the 20-30 go for the 9
if the wind is more around 15-25 go for the 11

but the best is to use them both :)
Yehonatan.

Or if you get a chance before investing your money try to demo an EPIC kite in order to see the difference. :thumb:
