Hi guys,

a good friend from durban introduced me to kiting while I was on holiday there and im keen to get into it here. I only have about 2hrs under my belt riding a Wipika 13.5m matrix kite and a 137 board the wind was about 15kts and I was able to get up and go both directions fairly easily but I did crash the kite once or twice.

What are the predominant brands of kites/gear here? in durban everyone rided with people who had the same brand as them. is this the same in oz?

I live about 5min away from the beach in wollongong and would really like to find a partner to kite with. im 21 and at uni there so have plenty of time . im away until the 17/12 but if anyone needs a partner please email me at [email protected]

thanks,

Andrew
