Hi everyone, I stumbled on this kite that is on sale right now, and I wonder if it's any good for beginners? It looks really advanced but maybe I can learn it?

Sorry for the newbie question, hope someone knows this...

yes RPMs are fine as beginners kites. They are a C hybrid which means they are more orientated towards freestyle riding but due to the swept leading edge and good de power it is fine to learn on. Having said that though there are much better kites to learn on but an RPM would get you through without trouble.

Give Kitepower a call or drop in if you live close by. They always have quality second hand or demo gear for sale. They will not sell you stuff that is dodgy (Disclaimer: My son works there and I know all the staff personally. All good people.)
