Hey and welcome to the breeze and kiting
Not sure what your schools are recommending
One word of advice though, demo the kite and make sure you are happy with it and you feel confident with it, since you and only you are going to be strapped to it.
What did you do your lessons on? Have you given any thought as to where you want to take this sport? ie waves, freeride, jumping etc.



Thank you so much for taking the time to reply

My school is recommending Core and Mutiny. I do believe them when they say they are great kites, but if I am paying that much I want something that not only flies well but has a look that i like.

My lessons have been on the Core kites.

I haven't thought about it to much yet. I saw people kiting in WA one day, I had moved from Sydney to Melbourne no longer had access to boats or a cable park so thought I would give it a whirl :)

Taking me a bit to get used to the kite; but hoping that once i master that i will take to the board like a duck to water. I love my kite school :) they are about mastering each technique properly before moving onto the next task. My instructors are also vigilant about safety and teaching us about keeping a safe distance... lol not all kite schools seem to be like i have had so many other schools students drop kites on my head.
