So I picked up a 2012 15m Ozone Edge to try as a light wind option to my Zephyr. After a couple days of riding I like it very much. Lighter bar pressure and a little faster turning than a Zephyr. A different type of kite for sure. It's a very fast kite, picks up speed more from apparent wind than grunt and goes up wind like crazy. Good boost and float on jumps. The wind was pretty solid 10 to 20 mph plus both days so I'll need to get out on some lighter conditions. I got a chance to try Billy's 17m Dyno last weekend. We both agreed it was like a size bigger in power than a 17m Zephyr. It would probably be better to compare a 15m Dyno to the 15m Edge and Zephyr. Overall the 15m edge seems like a nice option for me 165LBS but I'll post more when I get a marginally light session. :))
