Which kite produces the most lift and jumping capability? Iknow the blade isint on there but thats the purpose. I cant afford one and these are the ones I can.

MacPara Begos got lift...

And, I just tried out Ted Dougherty's 5.5m Pro Foil. It provided some nice jumps. Very nice quality at a good price.

Do you have an opinion?

out of the 3 types of kite the crossfire wins hands down, with the rad in second, then the buster. If you went crossfire id get the 6.3 instead of 7.7

Why

because i presume by the sizes you are looking at you arr after a low wind kite, which the 7.7 crossie is not, because of the weight of the material because of the size of the kite it is very hard to work in low winds, whereas the 6.3 is lighter and easier to fly in lower winds.
