Hi, I am moving to brisbane at the end of the year from Perth.

Beginner rider, 55-60Kg...(& a Gemini hehe) will be going anywhere between Sunny coast and Gold coast.

Is there a Kitesurfing Season? What strength winds are usual? I am looking at buying an Airush DNA or FLOW at this stage. Would I be best suited to a 7m or 9m for SE QLD conditions?

Thanks for your help!

Great choice in kites - get the 09 Flow if you can, or even the 08, but try to avoid the 07 - it is a bit of a truck. 9m would be the preference I think. I doubt a 7m will have you going too well until 17+ knts, you might be able to do better once you gain some experience, but generally you need more power when learning.

Generally the winds are lighter overal in Qld than WA and you can expect a lot more days around 14-18kts. If you go with just a 7m you will be spending many hours wishing you had the 9....
