My Comments:

I purchased the 6 meter because I want it for 30 + knots wind session. I laid it on top of my 8 meter Naish Ride and it was almost the same size. I was not happy. I flew the kite on 20 knots winds. I was on my Ocean Rodeo Mako king board . The kite is amazing , pull like a 8 meter kite (on that day most people were flying 10 and 12 meter kites). Turns quick, drifts and easy to relaunch.

the sales person told me he can fly the 6 meter on 30 to 40 gusting winds but I will not for safety reason.

I will be buying another BWS in the future but I need to get a 6 meter kite for a 30 plus knots wind sessions.
cheers
