Had a chance to demo a 9m Blade Beast yesterday in 18>20kn. Not a kite I have heard much about or seen around but it put a smile on my dial. Heaps of grunt for a 9m with plenty of power for good boosts and quicker flying than my regular kite. Simple set up wit one pump and comfy bar. No hype, just does the job and no freaky surprises. Worth a try if you get the chance
