For inflatables it really depends on the year of the kite. Some 02's were good like the Naish X2, but that's not for beginners. In 03 most kites were approaching decent. Pretty much anything 04 or newer is a good kite. You should be able to find an 04 in good condition for around $150US

I also am new to water. have flown some razors, bullets and more now i am on a 4.9 blade practicing on the beach. I have 2 lei's one 12m gaastra, one 19.5 co2. I believe that both kites are to big to learn on. I have been watching the guys @ scotts creek and they are all flying 7-10m kites the largest i have seen was an oldschool 11m. Does anyone recomend a good lei to learn with. I am 6'2" 200lbs and love lift.
