Windrange and sweetspot 12m Razor for 75kg rider with 130x40TT / 6' surfboard (not kite directional)
Any pulleys on the kite / bar?
One pump?
How does it compare to the 12m SS Ralley (in waves)?

If you are talking the Ocean Rodeo Razor, I have a 12m, and am about your size (185 lbs). The sweet spot is 14 - 18 knots, although I can ride it on a surfboard in less, I really don't go out much if it's less than 14 knots. Once the wind gets over 20 to 22 knots, I switch to my 8m, usually even if it gets up to 20.
The 8m packs a ton of power, the 12m has less high end than the Rise, and it just doesn't depower the same, needs more of an edge. I will say that the Razor keeps it's form better than the Rise in my opinion at it's high end.
