Hi all,

I currently have a Concept Air, New Wave 6.3 kite (12 to 20 knots) and I'm now looking to buy a larger kite for the 8 to 15 knot days.

I had thought of staying with the Concept Air New Wave series as I'm very happy with my 6.3, however a dealer told me that the New Wave 9.3 (Which is quoted a for 8 to 15 knots) was a little slow, If you use a 9.3 New Wave how do you feel about it's performance etc?

What size Naish ARX will cover the 8 to 15 knot range? What are the pro's and con's of the ARX compared to the Concept Air New Wave.

Regards Colin Barcelona Spain.

A Naish ARX 11,5m2 or a 13,5 m2 will cover the 8-15 range. (depending on your weight) But if you already have a 6,3 New Wave, I would advice you to go for a lager kite like the ARX 15,5 (covers 4-12knop ) or 17,5 (covers 3-10 knop). Remember that is is possible to 'depower' these kites.
