I only have a 12m for now and can't afford another kite(smaller). So lately I've been kitting 30knots gustily westiy and been finding very difficult so was thinking of using my weight belt and adding 10 or 20kg to my weight. Anyone tryed this before? Can't see no reason why it shouldn't work.
Seriously.....
Dude, there are two 6 metre kites in the buy & sell section for under $200.
Only that you'll probably either drown after the weights have knocked you out, mate have you been knocked back from the new inventors program
would be safer to only eat junk food, drink beer n coke
and not move off the couch for 3 months 
that should just about do it
sell your 12m buy 2 x 6m kites and stack them together when you need more power!....
You could try eating more pies. maybe resort to eating stones. skull 21 leters of milk before you ride. on the light wind days. take an enima.
develop a system that makes your kite more C shaped.
teather yourself to a vending machine. that will slow you down.
ps there are no stupid questions. only stupid answers...... well maybe there is stupid questions.
how about using a mcD's tray for a board?
That is the funniest thing I have read in this forum for ages!
'So lately I've been kitting 30knots gustily westiy and been finding very difficult'
Comedy gold right there people!
Get the weights and about 8' of rope....
Find a high bridge.
Now tie one end of rope to old fella and the other to the weights....
Whilst standing on edge of bridge throw weights off the bridge .
After a few goes your old fella will be big enough that you will have no need to use the weights whilst kiting.
weight jacket
refer to race sailing section
they were used to load up a bigger sail
a 6m or 7m kite would do the job better though
Cut off part of each wing tip to make a total decrease in area of about 25% that should give you an 8-9m kite. Then glue on some velcro so you can re-attach them when the wind drops. Should work fine.
Easy!
Don't tamper with your kite...too dangerous. Bring a couple of fans and a cable reel to the beach. Set them up so that they will blow against the wind direction. Use the settings 1-3 to adjust the wind you want to kite in.
If my calolution is corect you wil get the wind daun too 20 nots on seting 3 (min. 5 fans).
I know this is a piss take but.... Maybe try shorter lines? Failing that, cement shoes.
Get an older model kite in a 16 or 18 metre as they are really heavy material compared to your modern 12 metre. That way they should be about the same weight as a weight belt and give you heaps more movement to pull off some "sick moves"
Thorts?
putting weights on would be very dangerous. you should cut out leg holes in a plastic rubbish bin and slip into a giant rubbish bag, put your legs through and you will be able to vary the water required to ballast in every wind. the scoop value would make adding weight very quick.
can see no reason that it should't work.......
How about turning that 12 mtr kite inside-out, half fill the leading edge with gelatine, replace your kite lines with 6mm rope, tape the bottom of your wetsuit legs off, and fill your legs up with water, wrap duct tape around your board after you've covered it with sand, attach a sea anchor to your foot straps, have 50 weetbix for breakfast, and pray.
Get a couple of long ropes and tie them together. Bunnings have a 50m one for $6, so about 8 of them should do. Tie one end to that handle on the back of your harness and the other end to a handy object on shore, like a large rock, car, or power pole. If you make the rope long enough you should be able to do nice long runs in either direction. Can't see no reason why it shouldn't work.
If U do not want to reshape your kite to a smaller size[}:)], - stop trying to go up wind 
- the faster you go down wind the less overpowered you are - simple 
-
Good idea to practice your hitching technique to get back to your set of wheels.
So downwinder -- go for it.

My abbs are sore from laughing so hard
Great off season training and the funniest post ever for me..
Drink some mercury.
Tastes a little better if you put it in a strawberry milkshake.
