First flight


Recently purchased my first kite off the site a Beamer tsr 3.6 from kskites. After a week of waiting for wind finally got some 15-25 mph wind today lots of gusts but getting use to flying and controlling the kite. What a great workout to!! Looking forward to hitting the beach soon to get some more constant wind. And of course I had to try catching a little air and I did. I didn't think the 3.6 would get my off the ground being 200+ but it did. Thanks again loving the sport already can't wait to strap the snowboard on and give that a try

Once you're ready to move to depower kites, you're in for a whole new experience.

There's nothing like skimming over the water powered by your kite.
