I use Cloud kites which are superfast turning, but not the best for pure speed. I have seen frequent readings of 47km/h in the GPS. And I have heard reports of 65km/h which I think it is a lot. Maybe possible with a foil kite...

great video and nice riding! What is your experience with cloud kites and what sizes are you flying?

Thanks! Since I tried Clouds I don't ride anything else with foil. I am very happy with them. A couple of times a year I use my partner's Neo with twintip and they feel so clumsy compared to my Clouds. Clouds are very agile and drift a lot. They work great for freeride foiling. I would not choose them for twintip riding because they are not good for jumping and they go upwind less than a strutted kite. Although the 8m and smaller sizes are very fun in the waves and they go upwind well enough. I use 3.7, 4.8, 6.2, 8, 10.4 and 13m, so I can ride 7 to 37 knots winds 13m is my less favorite but a session saver in very light days. I could cover a large range with only 4.8m and 8m, but it's so nice to ride just the right size in all conditions.

@@glidejunkie Thank you very much for your helpful answer. I am also on the water a lot with Neos, as I often kitesurf with directionals. I will definitely try them out soon. Did you order them directly in Hawaii from boardriding Maui?
