Would a 10m synergy deliver as much power as this kite? The synergy's projected area is 6.0.

for a big rider, the Best 10m would liven up earlier in 20kts + . and in lower wind more power in general than a 10m arc by a fraction.
my 10m pl in 30kts is a good beginning .( this tops around 50kts)
not sure of 10m syn specifically.
very similar in amount of power. nem 10m being harsher jerky feel.
10m arc just fast and somewhat smoother when loaded & feels more manageable
the 10m c-kite in 30kts is tuff if the water is rough /choppy this thing will punish you
