There is another kite that falls in your range. The Flexifoil Sting 1.4-1.7-2.4 sizes all are under 200$ and they are good kites we use the 1.7 stings on grass in around 60+ winds. DONT TRY THIS until you are ready but it shows they are a durable rugged kite and it absorbs gusts better than most kites.


I want to see some video of one in 60+ winds! That's 8 times more wind pressure than I had when I set my personal best.

Sadly we have no video from those days one day we will. We haven't had winds like that this year. We had some 25 gusting to 35 and had my 3.2 out in that. I did an OBE at a buggy demo needless to say I went back to my 2 meter flow. It wasn't quite enough but it managed ok.
