- Every brand has one or two do-it-all, freeride kites. They also include some specialty kites in their lineup. Some specialize in wave riding, foiling, wakestyle, and big air. So which one is right for you?

Love all the footage in this video! And good information too. Good shots of St. Pete and Cocoa spots very nice!
As a noob, I do like an all around kite that is forgiving yet capable to do what is needed and respond to input. (North Reach) (Nice spotlight for Anthony too!)
I have a mix of kites in quiver for lower wind 12m sls evo for 3-5 metre jumps doing relaxed tricks and for freeriding, 9m evo and 7m dice for wave riding and for bigger jumps in bigger winds, the smaller dice is perfect for learning kite loops in moderate winds. The hardest decision was what model to choose for the 9m, due to being in the uk, higher winds tend to be quite lumpy so the evo won due to it being easier in gusty conditions.
Please, a little help. What are the best kite options for easy, forgiving, freeride fun with easy upwind capability? To have fun and do some easy jumps.
Great question-thanks for asking! 🤙🏽 Got a moment for a web chat? Click the following link, and we’ll do our best to help: messenger.providesupport.com/messenger/mackite.html
What do you think about mixing models in quiver? I currently use 9/12 evo but want to switch to 8/10 evo sls + 13 dice sls to do more unhooking in low wind. Do you think having different models will slow down progression due to the time needed to get used to certain model?
Trying out new models is all about finding what clicks for you. 🤙🏽 Keep experimenting and having fun with your gear. Good winds! -Aaron
Eleveight RS : the best ever do it all kite IMO
Rs is nice! I’m an FS fan myself. - Rygo
FS!
Ahhhhhh there are too many kite options. Why can’t I have an awesome big air kite I can also unhook with. jk I get it
😛
Or you could buy Ozone Edge which is do it all kite for real...
Still if wakestyle is your thing the edge is not the good one for you then amp is way better and the edge not have much slack
Then the dice or fx/ rpx are the better do it all kites
Nailed it. Haha my whole point is a kite that excels in your favorite discipline is going to be exceptionally better and still be do it all level for other disciplines.
Amp is supposed to be epic. Difficult to get a demo in the USA though.
Im still going strong on ozone c4 for wakestyle freestyle/big air their so much fun
