Ooooh wow!!!!
Both upwind and jumping in only 5 years. Your progress is astounding. Surely you have private tuition?

Just get a 10m - that will give you a reasonable balance for low and high winds...

Let me guess...Amirback would like to sell some REALLY cheap kites (in a few weeks or so ) so getting a few posts and a REALLY authentic profile will certainly help sneak past Laurie's vigilance...

Good try mate...

You might have to work on your English expression and your kiting familiarity and terminology if you want to appear legit.

A quiver with only one kite ???
For 75kg then go for 9m, and buy extra lines 5m to play with lines length
