If you can - its best to demo. Everyone has a unique preference. There are a lot of guys have that have glides on this forum - I'm sure one of them could hook you up for a test spin out at sauvies.
But remember Sauvies is an evil temptress - you never know when she is going to give it up. She skunks more kiters than any other place I know. Its a good place to bring beer and bull sh*t.

Go for a smaller kite and a glide .. .I'm sure Terremoto will let you try his top secret helium ankle weights he has been working on.

there are some good kite suggestions for light wind at SI above, but your best bet will be this.

I am no Messiah, you'll have to find another PDXM.
Seriously though, Sure Sauvies is close. I agree the 14T2 is a great kite. Basically any good 14 to 16M kite would do if you get lucky, but you could be on a 9M with a 45 minute drive. Best of all no crowds. (Sure there may be a few crazy ATV guys and girls)
