Earlier I posted a question regarding the choice of race rods vs 3 wrap frame in a VTD sail. Right now I have a similar question but pertaining to a STD sail instead.
Say if you have the optimal wind of your choice to use both (6-8 mph glassy smooth), would you rather use the race rods or the 3 wrap? The 3 wrap rods are heavier and coming from the dual line tricking background, typically some of us would prefer a heavier kite as it gives us more momentum for tricking. With Revs, does it help to have a heavier frame (assuming there is enough wind for it) so that it makes momentum based moves (clockwork, pivot turns, stop and go etc) better?
