try this with a freestyle kite... then you 'll know how a loop normaly feels like ;o)
-
lol crazy kite loop man kite loops should only be done in like 35 + knots.
-
Im around 220 and I can confirm I also need more kite than the average kiter. Even here in Alaska where the wind is colder and therefore pulls harder. If I had a 1 kite quiver it would probably be a 16M Xbow or a 17M Zephyr kite because I can hold down allot of kite in allot of wind.

@sidstille i mean im 150lbs and if ive got the energy ill ride a 10m in 20-25 so a 240 guy isnt that crazy
-
Respect for be able to laugh at yourself.:-) 20 to 25 kts with an 11m is not as far fetched as they make it out to be.. I ride a 12m in anything you to 30 and I am 78 kgs.. Its baout controlling the power..

Good to practice, good for your back !

where'is the kiteloop?
-
can't be 20-25 knots u hav like no power in you loops mate
-
who rides an 11m kite in 20-25 knots? thats insane unless you got it full depowered, or you weigh 300 pounds.
You are close. I'm 6'4" and weigh 250. I usually ride about 4m larger than the average person in the same wind conditions. I need the extra power when I ride my 137cm board. Of all the sports I have played, this is the only one that being big is not an advantage. It's the only time I wished I was back in the 7th grade and weighed 170 lbs.
