I don't think it is easy to put kites in order as there are so many variables from personal preferences to physical facts. Why some kite's have high boost and hang time. It is all about design parameter choices of the kite designer. With every kite you listed can probably be used for something.joandani wrote: which one will be better for freestyle? 15 FS Dlx, spleene x19, naish draft, north dyno? maybe a Zephyr...
I have an option I like, cause with 15FS DLX I could practice freestyle, but the thing I liked is that i could also boost higt I supose, but if with 10 knots i couldnt be able to do a decent powerful unhooked stuff (always thinking about a normal twintip like a Clash), maybe i would prefer a big one with slower turning, but better pop for unhook in 9-12 knots and forget boosting... you know what I mean? May be is a little bit difficult to explain It all depends with how many knots you can do some decent unhooked freestyle stuff... The perfect kite i need now would be one that i could do freestyle and boost in 9-12 knots, but dont know if it exist, cause i didnt tested anyone except spleene x19 :S

Big air? Not bellow 12 knots. But above : the speed of this kite + massive POP = aerial views
I've just ordered the 2013, my comments are for the 2012. From what I've read, the 2013 is similar to the 2012 + few optimizations (better upwind, less bar preasure, new bar).
You are so light, I almost weight double and my friends I talk&see kiting weight usually >80kg. And I was assuming you are the "average" 80kg person looking for something at that 8-12kn range which has kick for sure.joandani wrote:Thnks joriws, really nice post and videos! I needed a post like you did it. It helped me.
I will specify more, my weigh is 62 Kg, my biggest kite is a torch 12m, and the thing why I need a Flysurfer Speed 3 15DLX (or 21, but i am thinking i will go for the 15, because of my small weigh) or the Spleene X19, is because I live in Castelldefels (Barcelona) and there are lots of days with a wind average of 10 knots. (8-12 knots).
So my doubt now is if i take a FS 15 DLX (with my Clash 136 (normal twintip, not race or monster doors) i will really have decent freestyle sessions with DLX in Castelldefels (sea, not lagoon)... with its wind range 8-12 knots... i wouldnt want to buy a 15 DLX and after say, shit, may be i could take the spleene x19 or the FS 21, because there is not so much difference of wind that i thougt with my 12 torch (which I actually need 13-15 knots to start with decent unhooked stuff)... i hope u will understand my doubt... for that reason I want to know if there is someone with similar weight who already has 15 DLX and told me, with which wind he start doing unhooked stuff.
But, without testing, I am actually thinking it will be good for my and this spot conditions the 15 DLX.
Thanks!!! More opinions?
PD: someone know where can i test a FS 15 in Catalonia?

by far one of the best, (if not the best) LW kites in the market, really fast for his size and really good in unhooked moves, you can make kiteloops without any problem...
