quad-line smaller than 3m - FOUND/CLOSED

Last year I had this conversation at xBAN:

To me: "do you have a kite you can use in this wind?"
Me: "no. 3m is the smallest I have"
To me: "3m is the largest I have!"

So...I have a 1.8 little devil (awesome!).

I'd like something between the 1.8 and 3m.

I am (somewhat) experienced so I am looking for a solid kite, not a trainer or off-brand (including Pansh).

What ya got?

Peter Lynn - Resurrected Vapors (thanks to Tenacious Tape): 3.2, 3.8, 4.5, 5.4m. Size 2.3m (dead) - all internal bellows shredded
Pansh - Cerberus - 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.5, 9m. (red)
Peter Lynn - Viper - 2.6m
Flexifoil - Rage - Rasta 1.8, 2.5 (dead), 3.5 (dead), 4.7 (v2). New backup of 2.5m and 3.5m.
Ozone - Method 6.5m (w/ Ozone Turbo Bar)
Libre - Bora - Yellow 3.0 & 4.5 (both on their last breath of life)
Peter Lynn - C-Quad - 6.3
HQ - NPW9: 3.4 & 5.3. NPW5: 1.0

Buggies (Kite and Land)
#1 Buggy: Libre Full-Race
#2 Buggy: Peter Lynn Suspension buggy
#3 Sailer: Homemade Land Sailer
#4 Buggy: Windspeed Pro Ivanpah Buggy named Bruce (because he weighs 130 lbs!!)

I found Flexifoil has the 2.5m RAGE for £70 ($115) delivered from England.

Although all of the offers and recommendations sounded close, the RAGE sounds like a deal I cannot pass up.

Thanks all!

Gladed you got sorted. Crazy low price considering how much of it is probably covering shipping.

Pretty sure it's going to be a 2.5 though.

(Rages went 1.8, 2.5, 3.5, 4.7 & 6.0)

Yup. 2.5m is correct.

Thanks for correcting me. I updated my post.

They have the 3.5m for £84. What a great deal. Check it out.
