Hey guys!
I just moved hear from the uk and wondering whats the normal size kite i will be needing for your summer?? as not sure what the wind normally blows hear.am 80kg so i was thinking about a 10m? to start off with!!
in the uk i had a 9 and 12 that done me well for most winds over their.
any input will be good guy cheers
Many people play with the ones from K-mart, about 1.0 square metres.
Or if it is windy, people go windsurfing.
Stop wasting your hard earned on a sport that frankly doesn't compare to w/surfing.
At 80kg a 6m and 100 litre should be plenty for summer.
Haha^
You'd probably better off asking in the kite forum.
Also, where abouts in Australia you plan on living will also affect the choice.
15 knots to 35 knots of wind range should get you through in WA for the summer. year round I would go 8 and 12 provided the top end of your 8 is high. I'm 95kgs and kite 6 and 11 but that's me liking smaller kites and not bothering to take the gear out when below 17 knots or above 40.
haha well thanks for the input glad my post entertained forum for a bit haha,
at least your all not a bunch of boring twats.
looks like i better look for an 8m and not the 10m cheers
as windsurfer I have no idea...
but bought myself a 12.0 m2 to learn as most of guys use similar here
better wait and see your beach first
not only in hound racing...
If you're in Perth it appears we are in for quite a good Summer. Start with the 10, but aim to get a 12 and an 8 as well.
Or a 9/12 quiver if you want to keep it to 2 kites would seem to cover most people quite well.
This is assuming you have a twintip. And are in Perth - there is generally more wind in the North and a bit less in the Southwest.
PS you would get take a lot more seriously in the kitesurfing forum. Shooting the Breeze is an undisciplined rabble.
I enjoy the banter between windsurfers and kiters. So are the kiters really gay (not that there's anything wrong with that) or is it just a kinda thing like how Irish are dumb and kiwis pump sheep thingy joke whatever.
. A bit gay but not that much, kinda Irish but not too dumb and a bit sort of Kiwi but with less sheep action. We expect 200 entrants for kitesurfing.... half will send the application to the wrong place, ending up in athletics ...... and about 100 will get it right and compete"
you guys are funny, shame you are becoming extinct surely the UN, WWF, Department of conservation would do something, soon enough windsurfers will be fossils kids look at in museums. Just another species that could not adapt and survive...
Perhaps you need to recruit in new demographics?
Surely there is hope, plenty of useless people around!
