Bigger board or Light Wind kite?
Weight: 62kg
Kite: 9m Switchblade
Board: 135x40

Finding many frustrating days of 13-15 knots where I'm struggling to keep upwind and it's hard work (and boring) just keeping my kite up in the air. Don't get me wrong, love the 9m Switchy but it really performs from 16kts upwards and I'm considering adding a light wind kite. At my weight I think the 17m Zephur would be unmanageable if it starts gusting 16+ so looking at alternatives. Was thinking the 12m Liquid Force "Solo" because I'm pretty sure I can buy "kite only" and fly it on my 2017 Cab bar with fireball link. Both seem to have low V and single line flagging.
I'd welcome any "constructive" advise and input from others on kite choice or whether a light wind board would be a better option. I was thinking kite since the reviews I've read said the Solo would fly in 10 knots whereas the Switchy won't.
