Big Mutant for Lightwind and in the Surf! Good Idea?

[-andre-]

hi,

i own a three kite quiver (18r4,12r2 and 9 co2) and a 125*40 twin!
weight: 83kg

now i want a fast lightwindboard.
what do you think when can i start with the naish 5.4 mutant for example?

next point is to use the mutant in the surf with smaller kites! will that work fine?

or is it better to buy a bigger early planning twin because i didn´t like 2+m diris in the past?

greets and thx
andré

yes, yes and yes

I just got turnned on to a 159 realwind mutant

it has changed the way I kite in 15-20!
I can crank upwind,
play in the surf better,
jump better
and dont walk up the beach anymore

Still like the wakeboard for strong wind
but .....

220 lbs
11.9 AMP /16.2
8.5 Skoop /11.6

Yes good idea !!
I´m planning to have
2 kites and 2 boards....: Co2 14m - BT 10m
Mutant 5.0 - Lab Rat 130x34...
I´m 70 kg.
Big range of use for all kind of conditions.
Cheers.

Two boards.

Mutant 5'4" and TT 140 *38.

TT for flat water to choppy. fantastic edging machine with upwindability.

Due to winter storms, I am only using the Mutant as it is much more nice to ride on waves, swells. It goes much better against the waves when going out and big air.

Thinking to get the new Mutant 4'7".

Ciao,
