Wanted: 5.5 to 6m race kite

I am looking for the above sized race kite.
Something to get upwind up the beach. I have some grunty mid AR kites in this size range, but it is frustrating when Jimmy passes me going closer to the wind.:rolleyes:

PKD Combat
Ozone Quantum
Jojo Rm++
etc.

Some of you must have switched to depower and have these things languishing
in a shed somwhere.

Thanks in advance,
colin

Oh My Canadian brother. Don't take this personal. But...it's Jimmy. He's always going to pass you. LOL.

Buy the kite that Jimmy fly's or, I remember a long time ago, a friend let me borrow his flysurfer 13m psycho 3. Foils aren't for me but I was most impressed, The kite sat way ahead of me. Never seen anything sit so far upwind before.

I am still looking.
PLEASE help:saint:

I have an Oxigen II 5.5 made by U-TURN that I keep just because and never fly it..
look them up and see if you think that might be good enough to beat him :)
