I love mine. While taking lessons in NC this summer they tried me on a Best light wind kite. Can not remember the name. I could not get it to launch and stay going for anything. After 30 minutes we went in and they had a 17 Turbine pumped up and ready to go for me. I launched it, and rode off with it. The rest of the day it never took me more than 10 seconds to launch that kite and it stayed up just fine. All I can say is that Best kite sucked for me.
