What is your top 3 favorite kites you've owned


What is your three favorite kites you've owned? My favorite was my 12m phantom, 16m scorpion, and my old 13m guerilla 1. I was just thinking about my old phantom and how much fun it was, so I just was wondering how other people felt

RII 2.2m prototype used at nabx that will be reunited with me next week.

Vapor 16.1m (sept 5), already fell in love with the 11m since nabx.

Syn 15m, big air just got easier and safer in highwinds.

Sky Country Reflex 4m is the kite I like to fly the most. Fast and responsivebut wants more wind than we usually have around here.
Sky Country Reflex 7m is most suited to our local winds, not as fast as the 4m and much harder on my arms.
Sky Country Alasca 10m great for when I do not feel like having my arms stretched, but still want to go fast.



Is it possible to design for strength, if the designer doesn't really understand what strength is?
8m speed wings.
Ozone Samurai 3m
Sky Country Reflex 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10m new 6m!
Sky Country NaSCa 2 11m
Sky Country Alasca 10m - sold
Rhombus Firebee 3m (ret).
Libre Vampir Race Pro 2.6m
Jojo Rage 8m

PL Rebble 3.5 ( the kite that got me started, still fun on those mental days)
Ozone samurai 3.0 ( a shame that Ozone donīt make them like this anymore, the control was insane!)
PL Scorpion 13 (landboarding with this in high winds? ROCKS!)

but now it will be Chargers.... Already have a 10m to play with and flown most other sizes, man does this thing kick #ss, waiting for the rest of my quiver...
(has to be said that Iīm a landboarder, not really kitesurfing, just like boarding more)
