looking to pick up a flexi Rage 3.5 or possibly 4.6 depending on price, doesnt really matter to me if it is with handles or bar.
recently got a apexII 7.5m and have been tossed around quite a bit and am looking for a smaller one for those really windy days i just HAVE to fly.
:wink2:

the 3.5 rage will produce roughly the same amount of power as your 7.5 apexII. The 4.7 rage will definately be more powerful than that apex. If
you want something for higher wind days you may want to try the 5M apexII or if you want a fixed bridle kite try the 2.5 rage or other 2m low aspect
fixed bridle like a flow.

Depends what higer wind means and what surface you ride on. I'll ride my 3.5 rage between 10-25 on hard pack sand. I use to use the 2.5 rage 12-28
but it no longer comes out of the bag til 20. The 3.5 was my go to kite for nabx last year when the wind was 4-20. On tuesday when it was 30+ I was
on my sting 1.7. I was still amazed I could keep the 3.5 in the air on that surface... yay 4 aparent wind!

well my apex took me up about 20 ft the other day, it was pretty windy as in about 25mph. it was sketchy flying but fun. but yes im looing for a rage
that i can pull out on those days the apex is out of the question, and i go to washington a lot and would like something i could bring to the beach.
so maybe the 2.5 then?
if anyone has a 2.5 for sale ill be glad to scoop it up :shocked2:
