Hi, i have the chance to pick up a 2012 naish park 10m brand new cheap. Is this kite suitable for a beginner? Already have 12m switchblade, maybe learn on it, then move onto the 10m park.
Thanks scott

I learnt on a 10m Park 2012 and it was pretty easy to use. Go for it.

I have tried a few different kites I have not been kiting long but have found the park the easiest for me from what I have used to learn on etc

Not sure if the 2012 has the wingtip drains.
If not they can be difficult for a newbie to water relaunch. Otherwise yep the Park is an OK choice for a beginner.
(NB not slamming Naish at all - the Park is a good kite amongst the many more hybrid type styles. And the relaunch thingy only relates to beginners - & even then not everyone. Not a problem for anyone down the track a bit.)

Rob Gannon who owns Kite Boarding Perth has been teaching on the Park for the last 3 seasons, he is the most experienced instructor still teaching in perth,
i think that says enough
