Hi, does anyone know where to get a small wing for a kid to learn on? Do any of the manufacturers make a 1m or 1.5m?

I think Decathlon just presented ORAO 100 wings in 1.5m and 2.5m,did not watch the vid but they will probably be very cheap.

I've been searching for a small wing to teach my 11 year old daughter (23-25kg) and I wonder whether a 3m will be too much to handle even in light winds. We need the equivalent of a trainer kite....

Airush Starboard Freewing Air 2m is excellent for kids and ladies in stronger winds.

Hi Josh we have the original duotone wing 2.5 boomed wing, perfect for kids on skateboard, SUP and eventually foil. I use this on the skateboard too, palmy beach car park in a NEer is epic on the skatey, my 10yo can gybe and tack no worries

pretty sure WSS still have these old wings/ smaller sizes in stock at drastic discount

Thanks all for replying!

@MCRT that decathlon one looks like a good cheap option, cant seem to find it in AUs yet but I will keep looking.

@PeterP, @Ju_foil and @Smeee thanks for those options, seems like 2-2.5m will be a good size.

Great to see the photo and vids of your kids out enjoying it too, awesome!
