8.3 - 8.6 m Reactor
Anyone?...Anyone?
Ideal would be the 8.3 m red/black Reactor 1.
8.6 Reactor 2 or 3 OK.
Other colors - if needs must.
Dare to dream.

Why, certainly.
I have learned the Reactor 1 is 8.3, and the Reactor 2 and 3 are the 8.6's.
So - yes, definitely. The 2.2 is a Reactor 2, and the 3.5, 5.5 and 6.9 are all Reactor 1's.
Loving this idea!

Hey Jim, not trying botch a sale with ejmichael, but I am under the impression that the R1 is much lower performance than the R2 and R3... not 100%
sure but I remember Angus saying he would hand a 1st gen Reactor to a beginner and not worry, but not so much with a R2. If thats not a deal breaker
for you then no worries, but I thought you ought to know that before hand.
I'm going to take a nap now

Thanks, Spencer! Appreciate you looking out for me. I'm planning this to be my low wind low effort cruising kite. After ripping up the beach
yesterday with the 3.5m in 18 kts, my arms are begging for low winds and a big slow beginner kite. Begging, I tell ya.
