Hi,
I´m thinking to buy a FX or an Enduro kite of 12 m.
I have in the past a Vector (21014) and now a Catalyst (2015).
I love both kites and now I don´t know what´s the better choice for an intermediate level (not unhoking).
Someone who has ride these kites can tell something about?
Thanks!

i ride the enduro a lot - and i also know the FX
FX has lighter bar pressure and less kite-feedback in my opinion...
i really like the precise stearing & kitefeed back of the ozone kites - thats why i prefer the Enduro
in terms of boosting & hangtime they are pretty close together i would say...

Do you have the option to demo both kites in your area? I know Cabrinha has been pretty good about having brand ambassadors and shops setup with kites you can demo.
I have no experience with the Ozone but the FX has been my favorite kite in the Cabrinha lineup since it came out in 2015.
Demo if you can, that's the only way to really know which one YOU will like best.
Cheers,
CJ

Look at the Airush Union, it's the perfect mix of the both!
