Hi,

My partner and i have recently had a few kiteboarding lessons and just bought kites/harnesses etc...however we are still needing boards and are hoping to get some more advice...

Rider 1: Female, 68kg, 172cm (10m 2010 switchblade) - board size 135?

Rider 2: Female, 57kg, 167cm (8m 2010 switchblade) - board size 132?

We are wanting something that's not to challenging to learn on but also don't want to grow out of it too quickly.

We are located in Melbourne - wind conditions average approx. 13-20knots (we think)

We have so far been looking at the Underground Flx, Xenon LaLuz, Cardboard tempo or freeride, Nobile T5 or Nhp, North Xride.

Any info/advice would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Size wise i would say you are on the right track, wouldn't go new for your first boards and any the boards you have listed should do nicely.
Learn to body-drag...don't get a leash
