get the 15m it rocks in light wind on the land. but also consider a smaller kite aswell to go in between the 15 and the 3.

Hi. In my foil quiver there are a Flysurfer Unity 12 DLX, a Flysurfer Speed 3 15 DLX and a Flysurfer Speed 3 21 DLX. The kite I use mostly of the time is for sure the Speed 3 15 DLX. It has a fantastic range because I can ride starting from 7/8 Knots (with the Flyrace) but over 20 I am still in control  . I don't belong the Speed 3 12 because I've choosen, for this size, the Unity 12 DLX that gives me the opportunity to learn unhooked tricks  . Here's a video regarding the Speed 3 15 DLX that I recently posted on this forum: http://vimeo.com/42601396A big ciao from Italy Carlo

Nice Video and great soundtrack. I have both the 12 DLX and the 15STD, both are awesome. The 12m is much more fun, but the 15m has been a workhorse for me on snow and land, very good size and durable but a little heavy after getting the 12m in DLX Purple. Love the new colours and have now sold my 15m STD to get the new 15m DLX in yellow. The DLX fabric is so so nice to fly it will be really nice in the larger size. You can't go wrong either way!

...and now they are including the Infinity Bar 2.0 which I fly on my Speed 3 12 DLX. A thicker bar feels great in my hand and the new chicken loop and safety, not to mention the stopper ball which is quite nice. I would highly recommend the deluxe fabric, well worth the cost over the lifespan of the kite. the new colour for deluxe in 12m in now green! really cool and yellow for the 15m.
