wouldn't exactly say you want a FAST kite.

i hate fast kites with my loops... then they are shi**y
kite loops to fast with no power

i like my 12 switch for kiteloops.. not to fast, but not to slow
will throw you like theres no tomorrow and be a nice smooth pull

also gives me time to throw a flat 3 at the end (L3)

load grab the side of your bar, pop back into a raily, hold on, stay in the raily position till the loop is over, then use your arms and pull your self back in and land going downwind.
