I voted Phantom simply cos I love the graphic and the bright, bold colours. I like the Synergy design second but as for actually flying, I don't have enough experience to tell them apart yet ... I like the purple on my Vortex though :D



Yeah... I got a kite. Or two...

I'm a new arc flyer who has only flown a 16m V2 and 12m Farc so no point in voting. I will say I like the smooth power of the V2 on snow, powered up it's a park & ride machine with easy one handed control. We haven't had conditions yet to find the top end of it's range but so far it easily covers the range of a 12 and 10m depower foil. Light wind wise, if I inflate it with a fan and launch it by pulling on the front lines and can get it to zenith, it will pull me. I find it generates good pull when diving it for a power stroke to get moving.

The Farc is a different beast. Haven't really flown it in heavier winds. In lighter stuff it generates good apparent wind once you get it moving.

P15... go to kite for any wind. I've flown it from 10-30. Decently fast and not too overpowering.

But the V2-13 is more fun... super fast turning and can generate a ton of power if needed. I hit 40 on the beach in 20/25 by just dipping the kite :D Fun kite to ride up the dunes and fast enough to loop in lower winds!
