    The Firewire kite line is designed for an all round wave riding experience depending on what type of feel you are looking for.

    This really depends on personal preference, body size and riding conditions.

    Not one board suits all.



    The two thruster boards in the line are suited for guys that love having drive coming of the bottom to square up a nice solid hook,These board give the rider the ability to go where they want on the wave as the combination of flex ,rocker and shape make them super addictive .

    Your size and weight and riding style will dictate on which one you opt for.



    5'11

    I would have to recommend if you are use to riding a smaller kite board with a little less volume and like to have power in your kite this board will do the trick.

    For the smaller rider this board will give you speed and control while banking some solid hack strapless or strapped making it easy to stop the tail when needed to slow down or sink it in to throw some buckets.



    6'2

    I would have to say is suited for the bigger rider,also accommodating the lighter guy if he wants some more float to get out on the lighter days.

    This board is super quick and alive giving bigger riders the feel of performance while giving them some volume under their feet not making them feel like they have to much board to kite on..



    6'0

    This board really sore's up wind and with some weight behind it love's to be ridden like a skateboard giving you great combo in top turns to tail slides.The rider that wants a board that they can ride in marginal winds to on shore slop and have a ball.This could be you.



    The choice is yours.
