We have young Zac at our beach (13 YO)


He's progressed really quickly and is starting to even show some style much to his Stepdad's dismay

Cheers,

What do you think is a good age to start ?

Does it depend on the individual or do you guys think a certain age is about right ?

Was down at Parkdale the other day, and there was a 10y.o out on a 7m Convert - and it was blowing 28 knots!

He's only been learning for six weeks, and he was started do pop little ollie's off waves as well!

Hi guys - we gave a kite as a prize at Kitestock to the most promising junior. It was Bill Hampton from Margaret River who started late Nov last year and is already landing unhooked double back rolls.... BTW; he's 10!!!
