I very like foil kites for LW. But in 7m surfboard weather im rather on LEI. There is zero advantage of foil kite vs wave LEI in this wind. Even racer foil guys which I know - and they truly hates LEI kites - are on SB and wave LEI when is 7m weather.
Get any decent wave LEI. In 10knots everything will fly - so no problem to use it on HF. Forget Mono and no struts as high wind kites too.

Ozone REO V4 in 7 or 6m will do the job...light, easy, will not pull you from the foil etc...try to test it before you buy :thumb: :wink:
Ozone Reo.all sizes
4 of us foil riders at New Brighton use them, 5/6/7/8/9/10/12 mtr kites, (between us) I am just missing the 5 and 7 :(
Gods gift to foilers, superb for use on the Ttips and of course wave boards.

You'd be the only person in the world who thinks so. Don't suppose you sell Ozone, do you?
