IMOyou'll always find the most of a brand near the shop that sells it.

The Cab shop in Perth is near the river so we don't see tonnes of them doing coastal down winders.

The nearest shop sells Ozone and North

Also we've struggled to get a Best distributor here for quite a few years so they are rare.

Norths are expensive so some guys figure they must be great kites and buy them without even demoing one.

C4's are rare here. C kites are for flat water tricks , so maybe that's your area local?

Prob the most common kite this season was the Ozone REO - wave kite, downwinders, local shop.

I hate Big Macs so I demoed 10 different kites and bought the Ocean Rodeo RAZOR, cause it suited my style.

Great choice of kite!!! I love my Razors. North are expensive and in my experience, poorly made.
