Can some one give me the run down on lifty kites? Which ones for static or buggy? Sizes in the 200 lb. range. Wind 5-15mph. Do they have good lift
kites that are not high aspect? I'm looking for lift but do not want a race kite. I dont think I am ready for that yet. thanks to all for any help.:D

Peter Lynn ARCS !!!!! Lets SAyyyy......... 16 m Scorpian ! ? ? ? I think they improved the minimum wind needed. Venoms and Phantoms for cheaper
used. Lets Sayyyyyyyy 18 m ??? but they won't fly in 5m wind.
If it is the Ultimate low winder you want. A fellow I know is selling his 26m Flysurfer P2 somewhat cheap.

5-15mph winds, avoid the ARC's like the plague, they start to wake up in 15mph. Wicked once they do, but that won't really help you.
Tried and true, 6.5m-8.5m Blade IV.
The Blade III's are also a pretty solid kite, they'll get it done. If you're in gusty winds the 7.5m Brooza does good as well.

Thanks guys. I guess I am waiting for a blade 3 6.6!

If you're in a buggy, the way i understand it you can't beat a Blade IV for freestylin'!
My buddy Doc swears by them Doc in action

My Bego 400 is a sweet kite and offers great float. The 600 would be an excellent low winder. It has been a treat to fly static, use while skiing
and boarding. My BIII 8.5 is my low wind weapon of choice.

Is a 6.6 big enough to lift 220lbs? in 10-15 mph.

Oh yeah. My Blade 4.9 will lift me at 15 and I',m 200+ with gear on
