Slingshots are a good kite, but I'd go with a 10m if your just starting.

1Newbee,

There is upwards of 60 different kite brands on the market nowadays that each make at least 1 or 2 kites that would suit a beginner. As a general rule, as a complete beginner, you're trying to search for a good ''all around kite'' and avoid kites that are very specific for certain disciplines such as freestyle or racing. The internet is already full of information and reviews for just about any kite out there.
