Hey Bro. We find that most of or customers use the 13 Waroo for Winter Kiting. Especially if they are over the 80kg mark. The 11m seems a bit small for us bigger guys. The 12 Nemisis is the kite that I am looking forward to using this winter. I personally think that the 14 would be too big. That's just my 5 cents. Hope it helps and see you on the water
