hi, im thinking of starting power kiting if anyone can point out a type of kite for me to start it would be appreciated. im thinking of going on to kite buggying. thanks InsaneDarkness1

We'll need approx age-level of fitness, if you have ever flown even a two-line stunt kite, what approximate conditions you will be flying in, etc....

We don't want to steer you wrong, but we can't steer ya right unless we get a bit more info.

General Advice-a smaller high-quality trainer kite in a size such as 3 meters can be an excellent way to get your foot in the door and see if kiting is really something you enjoy, and it can eventually be your kite for very windy days, even when you're quite knowledgeable about the sport.

thanks very much. InsaneDarkness1

Is there a minimum age limit on kite buggying? InsaneDarkness1

It's difficult for a 2 year old to reach the foot pegs.

The younger the better. Less prone to hip and back pain.

Welcome InsaneDarkness1 where are you from?

My 11 year old just picked it up with ease. He could've learned earlier possibly. Fitting in the buggy and kite control are the limiting factors.

Welcome to the dark side! You should fit right in.

General rule is start with about a 3m, 4 line, fixed bridle foil on handles.

Use the search engine on here to find endless discusion on a good 1st kite.

thanks that helps alot!
