Hi racers.

I picked up a 2013 North ltd with mean lines, and a 17m gaastra jet for lightwind play.

unfortunately the jet has shown me that whilst you can play on a race board on wave kites (11m drifter) it is effortless on a race kite.

So, my 11m drifter is going and i am chasing a good crossover kite for use on the race board, old school boosting and waveriding.

Do you racers have any ideas? was thinking Rebel or new pivot? or maybe a second hand fuse?

Thanks in advance :)

Ozone edges. Great race kite and can cross over for other disciplines.

... ^^^^ agreed,,,,, and the current Dyno is a good one too, dunno about the new 2015 coming but one can assume its gunna be a good match with the LTD race board.

What size you looking at?

Got myself a 2014 11m rebel. freakn awesome allrounder. never owned one before, all cabs.

so much boost, hangtime, good bar feedback, light steering for waves. awesome on raceboard. got a good deal on superseeded model from ocean addicts. stoked.

dam should have got one years ago.
