Just looking for feedback and experience on the 15-22 knot range big air 12 metre kites out there? Rebel sls, north orbit, core xr? Looking for advice as looking for a 12 upgrade in the quiver? I'm on edges but they don't do a 12 and the 13 a bit too big.
cheers.

Can't beat the Rebel sls hasn't got great low end compared to the other kites but a way better high end. But for the range of wind you are riding in perfect.
Plus I reckon that the Rebel sls is closest to the position of the edge in the wind window. Those two fly further ahead than the orbit or xr. The Eleveight XS V5 is a kite to look at as well. Doesn't sit as far forward as rebel sls and edge.

Every kite is a big air kite if its 9meters in 50 knot winds

No kite is a big air kite if its 12meters
