hi guys,

so i spent a month in Perth probably 2-3 years ago now and loved it anyway im coming back for this summer.

from 28 Dec - 14 Jan

Will the wind still be blowing strong at this time of year? how many knots should I expect?

I'm looking at the new Switchblades as well, would u got a 7m,8m, or 9m?

I weigh 85kg ride a 133 caliber.

My dad also is coming about same weight rides a 135/136 Rival and not sure what kite size to go.. what would you recommend?

Also anything we need to know any new rules implemented?

Regards

GR8 U & UR dad makes 1133 interstate & O/S kiters visiting our shores this summer................Enjoy the wind

WA is a big state & wind srength varies alot; a 1 kite quiver wont cover you for all conditions.

If you're only bringing one kite, bring the 9m

9m will do for 80 % of the days

I would say 100%, if it's not 9m weather, why bother.

I will bring the 7m on Saturday. Hopefully I'll need it.
Do you know how to splint broken limbs?
