Looking for a 7-9m Peter Lynn arc

It has been a while since I have been active on this forum but since moving to Colorado and learning to ski I have taken up snow kiting and need something for those high wind days. I'm looking for a kite only since I have a bar that I got from flyjump a few years ago.

Are you sure you want to go that small? You will have a big gap between when your 4.5 Ace and the wind an 8m arc wants to see.

When locals are moving down to 3 - 5m foils my 15m Syn is just coming alive and my 10m needs to be worked hard.

10m is a much easier size to find.

Ya, really not entirely sure what size would be good for me. The 13m pulse basically lets me get going in super low wind. Its been awhile since I have flown an arc and I just don't know how much power I need on snow. If someone has a 10m they want to sell I would totally be up for considering it.

I have a 10 m Synergy listed in the for sale section.

You may want to consider Bob's Syn'.

I like mine very much when it's in the air. Ground handling it and all arcs in real windy conditions makes me go to my 7m Pulse most often.

I had a buddy who had only a 13m Pulse as a single kite quiver for years. He would borrow my 7 on occasion's like Ivanpah.

I was very happy with my 7m Pulse , 13m Psycho III combo. Accept I was a bit short on real low wind as you know. Only broke it up to re-explore arcs.

Consider a 7m Pulse to compliment what you have? IF you can find one they are usually a good deal.

Blade runner, I was thinking of a whole different "Sofaking" who showed up to WBB several years ago, in pajama pants, a t-shirt, barefeet and a snow sled and was getting crazy on the beach! That dude was straight up crazy!
