Help me choose a kite please


What kite would you guys recommend for the following conditions:

I live and kite on a lake..winds usually gusty can go from 15mph average to 20 gust and back down to 10..stay there for 15 seconds and back up to 20 for 5 seconds and down to 13.

Looking for something that will just hang there and wait..mostly looking for something to keep me riding and wont luff out of the sky..doesnt have to be high performance but stable and wont fall..just keep me riding..

I weigh 195lbs.
