The problem most visitors see is, that the kite could work against the batten in the center if the kite since due to the attachments of the lines the power will bend the kite to a round form. If the battens will hold the pressure, we will see.
Alleged to the producer the GXS (high performer) will give the jumper more hangtime. The G-Spot is the beginner kite with a smaller AR, but also a 4-line kite!
The tips of the G-Spot are smaller than the ones from the GXS, which will give the GXS faster turning and due to the higher AR the GXS is not as easy as the G-Spot to relaunch.
