Safe and simple, but not powerful

Good all around performance but not great. Not a very powerfull kite. I admit I was please with the overall performance considering the size used(14m) but was expecting a lot more power. Easy relaunch, excellent quality construction, very safe and simple kite to use.
Probably an excellent freeride kite in the smaller sizes but would choose something else for light wind. I am selling my 14m.
