I've been flying a borrowed 5m Yakuza lately and I'm really impressed. It's much more stable/well behaved than I expected.
Are there any sizes to avoid? Or are they all good performers?
Thanks!

Well, the 6m is sweet. Smooth and fast, just need to see how it stacks up with the Combat.

Thanks Pablo - let us know how it compares...

It's hard to say at the moment, I had the 6m up in the air and it was powered ok, could have used a larger kite, the only combat I had at the time was
the 4.8m, so way underpowered. The Yak would outrun the 6.5m Century though, I tried most of the tricks and couldn't get it to keep up.
By what I have seen so far, they're both smooth, fast, strong kites with killer upwind. I think it'd come down to the pilot. There's not much in their
league though. If you go up a size with the RM+ you'll still be in the race.
I'll post more thoughts on this in a couple days when the Combats clear customs.
