Best advice...get some lessons...ask your instructor....they will have a clear picture of your level / weight / winds etc

You'll love it

hey dude im an instructor. ive got an 07 ocean rodeo 9.5metre for sale which is great to learn on its a bow so i you have the safety of the full depower for $850. PLus it comes with half price lessons so i can do 2 hours for $80 or four hours for $160 you can learn on the kite you buy I've got a harness and board for you to use as well. If you want to buyt hose which you will need to eventually :) your looking anywhere between 300 to 700 second hand 700 to 1500 new and a harness can range from 120 to 300 but we can go through that more if your interested. pm me if your keen

There you go - perfect
I'll even lend you; for as long as you need; a big floaty twin-tip to help get you going.

think twice when taking advice on what to bye from instructor since most of them are connected to a shop in some way meaning they will promote what that shop sells. but there are those that have no connection to any shop or brand. but defiantly get some lessons might cost a bit extra in the beginning but you will regret that you did not get them when your in hospital
