Which has the best boost, I appreciate the aspect ratio has a bearing on the amount of resistance the kite has to the upward motion of things and other things too, but the only C-Kites that I see going big are the Fuels and the Hadlow's is this because of the pilots.......!

Some Delta and SLE kites go just as big............

Would I be correct in saying that C-kites are more freestyle trick based and Delta's and SLE are more for boosting and all round cruising....???

C kites boost big if you have perfect timing and can load and pop really hard. They loop very powerfully and really only experienced riders can get the best out of them. Whereas any noob can be edging and just pull in the bar on an sle, delta, hybrid and boost big.
