Fun day doing some hill climbing with the 6m Gin Marabou 2. I love how quick the kite is and you can really carry a lot of speed with it on the down hills. This particular day winds were in the high teens lower down down probably maxing out under 30mph at the top and in the gusts. I felt like I still had a lot of top end left on the 6m - I think you'd rarely need a smaller size than the 6m for most enjoyable snowkiting circumstances - at least at my weight (195 lbs).
You can hear some flapping on the 6m in the turns - it was noticeably more than any of the other sizes I tried (see my 8m video for comparison). Not sure if was just my kite or the way I had it trimmed that day. The flapping really only happened in the turns; on the straights it was very clean and quiet. And FAST. A lot of fun.
