Can't decide between the two.

What do other people think?

I vote for North Dice but it's pretty expensive. You should demo a North Dice at the Spit.

Considering you fly smaller kites than most I would suggest a lighter weight kite like Ariush Ultra, North Mono, LF Solo.

I demoed both already. I like both for their stability when I do kiteloop. Unlike my Naish Park -- which rattles me.

Yeah Dice is kind of what I'm leaning towards to, but for over $2000 -- Don't know if worth that much.

Thinking of getting 8m this time so my 6m Naish Park may just be for Boundary bay SE stormy session.

If you are after a great looping kite then stay away from all the 1-strut kites, none of them loop amazingly well.
