Hey all,
I'm a newby with some wakeboarding experience. Had just the one lesson on my last break (FIFO worker) and i've been practicing with my 2.5 ozone trainer up north (had some fun with that). I live in Bunbury and am looking at getting a kite soon to take to my second lesson. I've been recommended the Switchblade. I'm 80kg and the instructor I had my lesson with suggested a 12m kite would be ok for me around the Bunno area. It does sound big but I guess it would be good to be able to go out in the lighter winds. Anyone from around Bunbury/SW area have any suggestion on kite size/brand and board size?

This is my last swing up North so i'll be back living in Bunbury full time in a few weeks and hopefully be able to start learning with out hurting myself or anyone else. If any noobs or anyone else are keen to meet up for a run once I get my gear that would be appreciated.
