Is it perfect?
Im about to buy one but would like to be sure that it actually is a 10 m2 and that it flies as good or even better than previous years?
Sounds like a weird question, but you know, sometimes certain sizes of certain years are just not "the bomb"
And I have to buy it NOW
So hit me. Does it rock?
Thank you

I replaced my 2011 10 with a new 2014.Didn't really see much difference. Not sure but it does seem to pull a liitle harder on the low end.Turning speed seems the same.I'm 6'4 and 220lbs and I'm always amazed at how little wind I need to get going. The 10 rpm is the best kite I've ever owned. Perfect for me and the way I ride.You won't be disappointed. The 12 is a different story !

Thank you. I have a 2012 Fuel 13 and I have just now ordered the RPM 10 2014
I hope it will be a good fit!
Combined with my Tona pop i guess I will get the Dre steeze with little to no effort

Hey Kas911, let me know how you like it. I currently ride quiver of fuels (13m is my lightwind) with the Tona Pop. With that setup I'm almost at Dre steezyness but thinking of making the transition to RPMs as well just to give me that extra steezshot
Cheers

Yeah, I got the 14m 2013 and love it... My current 10m the Nobile 50-50 covers 12 in the hole to 30 in the gusts with 3 knots taken... I wonder what the RPM 10 can do.
