Any more feedback from riders and owners of this kite? I read an old topic from Jan/Feb 09 but couldn't make a post to it due to the age. General punters seemed to think it had no bottom end. Wind range on Ozone sight puts it a lot closer to the 9m than the 13m too...... Interested in Tobes and Gordo's comments.... not really Steve, Rusty or Darren's thanks.

Thanks Matty - what board are you on and what do you weigh?

Have you tried the 13? does it feel a bit piggy like a biggish kite?

Hey Kurt.
I haven't flown an Edge RX since last year when I posted the review you have read.
I spent last year still on the Edge2 and Sport2, which are both brilliant.
I'm mostly interested in wave / freeride kites. The EdgeRX just wasn't the right kite for me, I loved the LightXC though.
After demoing the new C4 at Mambo I got a bit excited and ordered three of them.
I've had the 9m for a couple of weeks now, i'll put a review together soon, but the brief version is

Kurt, the 13m is excellent it is a big improvement on the 08. It turns much quicker than the 08, it loops nicely, real smooth power through the loop..... boost is probibly better than the 08 and this is due to the quicker turning speed, hang time is similar to the 08. Power wise low end for me is around 12 knots (95kgs). The top end 30 knots. The 4 lines is a huge improvement on the 08, I had the 09 11m also but i didn't really enjoy it. The 13m is completely different to the 11m I would highly recomend a test ride. You are welcome to hop on mine if you see me around.
