LF Envy vs F.one Bandit vs SS Rally vs RRD Passion
Posted: Tue Aug 28, 2012 8:20 am
Hi guys,
I'd like to buy a 9m2 kite for my wife and for me to use in hard winds (wife = 130 lbs, me = 200 lbs).
I'd like it to be extremely easy to relauch with light bar pressure as my wife is a complete beginner.
I've done some market reseach and narrowed it down to these four kites.
What strikes me most is how different the wind range is:
LF Eny: 16-33 knots
F.One Bandit: 15-30 knots
SS Rally: 15-26 knots
RRD Passion: 14-25 knot
(these are for a 170 pound rider). My favorite is the Envy mostly because of the wind range. I have also tried the RRD and I really like it but the wind range is pretty poor. The Bandit is very versatile.... Rally has received good reviews but I'm not sure about the bar pressure...
Any thoughts?
