As a pure trainer the viron would probably work. It should get off the ground in about 6-8knts no problem. Won't generate much pull at those wind
speeds but if you're just looking to get a feeling for how a kite feels it will do. The React will take a little more LEI's are significantly less
efficient flyers and therefore it takes more speed before they get flying. I would say for the react you're probably looking for at least 10knts.
Again even at 10 knts the react won't generate much pull so you'd still solidly be in trainer mode not traction mode.
So for my money I wouldn't go less than a 6m. That would allow you to get it in the air, play around and keep it in the long run as a high wind kite.
I would also certainly go foil.
