Time to get wet!!
I will be taking lessons this month for my birthday and going to need some gear. I have a line on a nice light wind kite but it might be just a little
out of budget.
What I still NEED is a board. Going to need something along the lines of a door as I weigh 220# and I have very light winds here.
Post up what you've got!! (Boards, kites, etc)
Thanks!!!

Ok, took my first lesson today and already hooked. Need kites!!!! Used a cab switch 14 today and honestly I felt like I could have used a bit more
power.
Whatcha got?????
Edit: still need a board too

You can't get enough power when you are learning! strong winds make up for bad technique!
Try an Epic Infinity if you can - launches in nothing and pulls like a freight train!! The Switchblade is a sweet kite but the Crossbow has more
grunt.
If you have a kiteshop available try as many as you can before you buy anything!
