I just ordered my first kite a Beamer III 3.0m.
From what I read here and there this should be a pretty good trainer and last me a while after as well.

I'm going to have to start scouting some training grounds. If any one has any ideas in the eugene area or possibly around florence, I'd love to hear about them.

Better yet if there are any newbies that wanna pull one up sometime that would be good, too!

Cheers!
