After extensive research all I have seemed to conclude is that there is alot that goes into deciding what kite to use, also noticing that alot of
people bring multiple kites with them when going for a flight...
So I'm hoping I could get some guidance from someone a little more experianced then me.
I'm buying a kite with the intent to buggy asap I know it will take a lil time to get it down before going ahead and tether myself to a kite but now
you know my goal, I'm 5'8" tall 140lbs living in Monterey ca with winds here that lately have been averaging between 5-15mph I'm sure it will get
windier but that's what I've tracked this month. I've got my eye on the HQ Beamer iv, but don't want to buy a kite that's going fail at pulling
me+buggy also don't want too aggressive of a kite.

If you want to make a little drive I am located in Galt and would be happy to let you demo different kites to see what you like best.

I ride most of the time with a 7m. 2nd would be my 5m. BTW I live here in Monterey if you need some help..

The trick is to get a good 3m kite and start getting fly time in. The Beamer is a great choice.
We bring multiple kites because kites have a sweet spot for wind and we always hope to have the right one for the day. Typically 3 kites covers you.
Get flying and hook up with Dino to figure out what will be the right second kite for you and your desires.
Hook up with Kyteslinger to learn how to fly !

Dino can teach you to fly as well. You can un-learn all his bad habits once you see how KyteSlinger does it ! :frog:
