Hi,
I am trying to expand on my kiting quiver and cant decide whether i should get the smaller kite first or the bigger kite first. From recommendations from schools and other people i should get a 11m as the bigger kite and a 7m as the smaller kite but unfortunately i cant afford both at the same time.
Would it be more beneficial to get the smaller kite first or the bigger one first?
I am 65kg and ride a 132cm board and am a intermediate rider trying to get into freestyle and at the moment have a 9m.
I mainly kite at st kilda but when there are northerlies i sometimes travel to Brighton
Thanks
Jeremy

At the moment im looking at 2010 fluid vices both the 7m and 10m

Yeah sorry 11m
Um I have a 9m 2009 cab crossbow 3 which gets me up and riding in about 16 knots or so.. That's why I was sort of leaning towards the 7m because I am a smaller rider and quite often find myself riding overpowered.

So are you saying I should sell my 9m and replace it with the 7m and 11m?

I say buy smaller kite.

If you are already getting out in 16kts - you arent going to get much better than that. Presumably you are overpowered by low 20kts - hence buying 11m wont help in that situation.

You will probably find that a smaller kite will become your new regular kite. I am powered on my 7m from about 23 kts - and you are quite a bit smaller than I am.
