first kite/kites
Hi all, I'm sure it's been asked before and will be asked again.....

I'm in the process of doing a few lessons, and will most likely wait till after winter to buy gear unless a good deal comes along.
I'll be starting off in botany bay, but my final goal is to hit the surf at Cronulla.

At 100kg what size kites should I be looking at? And if I buy 2 kites (as many suggest) how far apart should the sizes be?

Also, when they list the wind range for a kite, what body weight are they calculating that from? Is there a standard formula to adjust it for big guys such as myself?


I've heard good things about cabrinha switchblade, looking at a second hand 2013 10m and 12m. Is that a good combo to start with?


Cheers,
Nik
