With this set I can kite in any conditions!
Keep the following point in mind when you are thinking about buying kite equipment.
- Used equipment is cheaper but lasts less long. 2010 new equipment is also cheaper than the latest 2011 sets.
- Where are you going to kite? Is there a lot of wind or not so much? In light winds you need bigger kites.
- With wave riding you use normally smaller kites.
- A seat harness is only nice for cruising and small jumps. A waist harness is more comfortable for freestyle and waveriding.
- A lifejacket in big waves is dangerous, you need to be able to dive. An Impact vest is an better option.
- If you take two kites than 3 or 4 m2 difference is perfect.
- If you take 1 kite than a 9, 10 or 11 meter kite will be most used.
