 Sat Jan 23, 10 10:47 am 2010 Switchblade IDS size for the Gorge (9m or 10m)? |
 |

I'm a 175 male intermediate trying to decide between a 9m or 10m SB
for riding predominantly in the Gorge. I have 7m and 13m kites, so I'm
looking for something to ride 80% of the time between those kites at
the Gorge. Thanks! |

Most people your size use a 9 meter bow/SLE as their main kite, or 11m C. It's windy here. My main kite is an 8m RPM and a 6' directional at 190 lbs.

at 185 an 11m bow kite has been my go to size for a while. But you got a 7 and a 13. A 10 would be 3 inbetwen both of your kites. Would be a perfect in-between size. If you can only afford one - I would say a 10. And if you are going with a switch blade they are pretty rangey - so you should be set.
