F-one kites i tested were:

12.1 , 15.1 , 18.1

15.1 and 18.1 are very good, the 12.1 is good but doesnt perform so well as the others.

Airrush:

Lift 9.4 (12m i think) - This kite is very nice the bigger one (16m) i dont like it .

The 9.4 lift is one of the best kites on the market! I highly recomend it.

I HAVE AIRUSH AND I TIED A LOT OF KITE, BUT THIS ONE IS REALLY GOOD. LIFT HAS A REALLY HIGHT PERFORMANCE AND THE ATV ARE FOR PEOPLE THAT START KITING.

Airush havn't had any delam problems. They have always used dacron on their leading edge and struts.

I told u, I haven't problem. I used always the 12.2 and the 9.4 and sometimes the 7.4 with really strong wind. on the lake and also on the ocean, never problem.

I probably choose Lift 7,4 over Mach1 9,1

What is the Lift 7,4 aspect ratio and realistic low end for 85 kg rider on 180 twintip

Thank you guys for inputs and answers
