Hi all,

Heading to Adelaide for 2 months with work and need to decide what size kite to take 12/ 10.5, weighing 80kg? What are the typical winds around this time of year.

Also checked out the SAKSA and read you need membership TAG to ride at some beaches, will my Aksa tag allow this?

Thanks

Hey flybywire,

Yes your AKSA membership is fine for riding in the restricted areas. Just have a look on the SAKSA website at the map and that should tell you where you can and cant ride.

Tough call on kite sizes. This time of year usually gets a bit fickle as its the changing of the seasons and the seabreezes arent as common. Its almost a 50/50 but personally id probably bring the 10.5 and hope for a stormy frontal like we are having today. Guarenteed tho, u bring 1 and u will need the other, he he.
