Hey, I want to try this land kite boarding thing. I've seen a few sites that have a package deals - kite with board. I was wondering if it would be better to just get the kite first and learn how to use it and then get the board later? The kites I'm looking at are the Beamer 2.5 or 3.6.
Thanks,
Scott

Nothing wrong with being smart.

There's quite a bit to learn and for many of us, trying to do both at once is a sure way to get hurt.

Get the kite and get familiar with it.
That knowledge alone can help you decide what other gear is appropriate for you.

Skills and knowledge.
What concepts!
In a world where just "wanting" is thought to be enough.

Thanks Corey. I'm leaning toward just the kite now but if I get both I can save $50. I could always just get both and learn the kite well first.
