I am about 6'2" tall and weight about 215lbs...I'm very athletic and I am what I guess you could call a quick learner..took a course in Hatteras ....I live in NJ where I kitesurfed all last summer in the ocean. The winds on avg. are anywhere from 9kts to 15kts.
I have F.One kites both the shadow 7 and 9 along with coffee table directional known as the cheater. I am interested in going to a "blimp" and have heard several different things about a few kites..
taking my info. into consideration what would anyone suggest - the Wipika Hydro 11, or the Fone Mach1 12.1? even throwing around the idea of the Slingshot Fuel..140...
My main area of concern is I want to ride in the ocean and improve greatly on upwind performance and jumps...I am what you would call a beginner in being able to gybe and boost girly airs.. =) but no upwind ability largely due to my gear I would imagine..
Thanks...
