My choice for Kjerag WS flights.
11 ft bridle
36 vented

Sometimes I'll use a 32 ZP vented PC; but I have noticed it takes a little bit longer to open.

James Boole or Robert, what would you recommend?

I'd recommend emailing Robert and asking his opinion. He's about 100 times more knowledgable on this kind of thing than the rest of us put together.

Hrm, good idea. I seem to remember seeing some video of him doing some pretty extensive testing. SmileWink
