Ozone Reo 12m 2015 for light wind fs strapless?

Postby Comar » Thu Nov 27, 2014 9:54 pm

Hi,

I'got a Reo 9 & 6m, I like them and I m looking for a bigger size for lower winds, with my 9 and my 6 I'm 100% on waves but with the 12 I would try some flatwater strapless freestyle.

Should I get a 12m Reo or a Catalyst or other freeride kite in that size?

I'm 75 kgs, riding on surfboards and Shinnster...

depends on your definition of light winds - but a 12m reo would compliment your 9 and 6 very well.

Just keep in mind that in lighter winds you'll feel power in the kite go to pop an ollie trick and not have enough wind to keep the board pushed against your feet. Still can be fun, but that aspect sucks.

Yes, you right, I didn't think about that.
I noticed that it's really easier to do some tricks in 6m weather that 9m conditions, so yes in light wind it will be more difficult...
Maybe I should get a kite with more sustentation to do some grabs tricks...

Yes that would work no problem. I have a blue one that is lightly used if you want it and are in the US.
