Was looking for some advice. I started kiteboarding the start of 2015 in perth and fell in love INSTANTLY....but then i got work in the middle of no where northen territory, but ive got about a month off over chrissy and was looking to do a month long road trip kiteboarding or just finding one place and just camping up for the month kiteboarding (first chance ive had to since i started) and was looking for any advice as to what the east coast is like around that time!? I know its pretty good in perth just have no idear as to what the east coast is like and no one i know kites. I have a 9m and an thinking about buying a 11 or 12. Would they be allright!?

9 and 12 are a good split. Most of the NSW east coast around Christmas will get 15 to 25 nor'easter or 25+ sou'easter winds 4 to 5 days in each week.

I mainly used my 12 and 14 last summer (100kg).

You won't get anything better than the West coast where you learnt that time of year.
Depends on your weight - At 75+kgs a 9 and 12 would cover at least 90% of the wind in WA through November to February.
Mostly on the 9.
