Ive got to agree with your postings neil. 20 meter C kites are the dogs. My only C kite is a 20 meter Caution spitfire, and I love it. It absolutley destroys a sea breeze. Addmitedly Im well over powered by 13-14 knots, but who cares!!!!!!

i'd thought you would have to stack two of them shem wot with all those welsh pies


17m contra bow mmmmmmmmm

when do we get a go then col, be good to test back to back with the 20!

those 20s r like driving a big lazy-ass bus. Prefer to drink an ice cold beer or a whiskey on the beach

shem as soon as jon gets back from jersey. blew it up today and its huge 8m wingspan tip to tip and 7ft high in the middle.feels really light and by all accounts a light feel on the bar

hopefully a light wind monster . . . .

will suit you 'heavier pie consuming professionals'- extract from cabrinha website:

Q: Why the new sizing?
A: The new sizing reflects the gains we’ve made in performance. For most people in the world a 14 meter kite can be used as their largest kite. The 14 has the best weight to power production ratio. I would only recommend the 17 meter for someone who has a heavier build or someone who just likes a lot of power.
