Hey,
I'm buying a 9m airush razor for sure, and i have two other options to help my quiver out...

would you rather
2011 9m airush razor, 2008 11m and 13m fuel (1 smart bar, 2 pro fire bars)

OR

2011 9m airush razor, 2011 13m razor (1 smart bar)

they both will cost me the same amount


Thanks

My first quiver when I learned in the Gorge consisted of a 9m and 13m and it was perfect. Go for the Airush 13.
The 2008 Fuels are not the best kites to learn. You can do it, but not the best choice.

Stay with the same brand and style of kite, and 9m to 13m jump is just fine to cover the wind range from about 15 to 27 knots if you are in the 190 lb category.

How much experience do you have?

As a beginner kiter you might have more fun and learn a little quicker on these:

The Razors are great kites. If you want to stay with one brand and are looking for a great quiver price that will help you learn fast, I would talk to Brad.
