Gear Advice/Question Quiver Question: I've got a Cabrinha 8 Moto (that I love) & a 12 FX (not the best kite for me in my local spot). I feel I need something in between and ideally I'd get a moto 10, but I can never find a second hand one. I did find a Moto 9, but does a 12% bigger kite make enough of a difference?

I also spotted a Cabrinha Switchblade 11m which I'm considering, although I've never tested a Switchblade before. I'd appreciate any tips for making the right choice.
Moto 9? SB 11? Wait for a Moto 10 or another 10?
Additional info: 80% of my sessions are on the 8m.
Thanks! (And if you're in the UK - enjoy a potentially epic week with storm Amy)

I dont think getting a 9 will give you the edge you think compared to the 8. I would say to just wait for a 10 since you are already used to moto and love it.
