If that isn't on a PKF t-shirt yet, it should be.

That was my first 4 line kite. Then I wanted a second one. Then I was sure that the third kite would be enough. Now I have 9 and my next 3 already
picked out. Just pace yourself and this sport will give you much happiness. Congrats on the kite on the way. We share your excitement and most of
all we understand.

I think it is safe to say that a lot of people start under a beamer. I did and many that are in my area did. I still have mine, and pull it out here
and there. Excellent choice! Have fun, be safe!

Same here
Just made my first quad purchase. Beamer 111 2m
Just doing ground rec stuff for now.
Been watching the Youtube footage and hope I made the right choice for my size. 150lbs. Maybe time to breakout my old climbing harness.
