High wind kite Frenzy or Access

sigma - 4-3-2011 at 03:36 AM

Hi, I have a 9m Frenzy 09 for my landboard, I love it. I am thinking about a highwind foil and cant decide between the 6m access and 7m frenzy. Is the Frenzy too close is size ? Does the access have enough lift ?

I am no pro but interested in lofty jumps. Thanks

Access isn't going to get the pop and lift the frenzy will, but it's no slouch, plenty of air can be had with them as well. I would say that yes the 7m frenzy is too close to your 9m for it to be a true high-wind kite. Yes it will obviously work in higher winds than the 9, but not enough of a difference in my opinion...

Yeah a 2 kite frenzy quiver would be 11m & 7m for most riders.

I agree that a 7m would be too close to a 9m. I have a 7m and am planning to get an 11m instead of a 9m.

Sound advice. Thank you.

As a kitesurfer first, I didnt expect the land kiting to become such an interest. I should have anticipated a multi-kite quiver to follow :smilegrin: I might use my LEI 8m for high wind and aim for a low-wind land/water option - Flysurfer speed 19M....
