There's a thread on here somewhere (sorry, I looked but couldn't find it) with the answer to your question. I think you're close to correct in the order you've listed them with the exception of the Syn / Vortex which I think flip. The Bomba might be an early model too, and there were S-ARCS before them all (Vince's twinskins).

To the best of my knowledge:

S-Arc (original Arc)
F-Arc (wicked)
Guerilla
Guerilla II & Bomba (both release around the same time)
Phantom
Venom & Vortex (both released around the same time)
Venom II
Scorpion
Synergy

Basically, each model improvement is a huge breakthrough from the previous models. This is one of the great things about Peter Lynn, they bring out a new model when it is superior to the old - instead of forcing a new color pattern, mega hype BS and tiny little change on the market every single year. We have some kiters here that still use the S-Arc and Guerilla II's so that shows their longevity and durability. Although the new models really rock (especially the Synergy!!!) the older ones still work great and are good kites.

Hope that helps.

ooh i better get on that/have a peeek. problem is the tress all along the north side of the skinny river-like lake. tree line might not go all the way to the east end though (i can't see/never looked). might be good enough for shake test.
