Buying First Kitesurf Kites: don't make the mistakes I made

So you're taking lessons and you're hooked on kiting, but you don't know when and if you should be buying your own gear. Everyone you ask gives you different advice, and none of it really ads up. My hope with this video is to give you some basic common sense guidance based on the mistakes that I made, that hopefully make your life easier. I cover what kites to buy, when to buy them, and what sizes. Remember, speak to your instructor and to experience locals to make sure that you get the right equipment for your kite spot, the local conditions, and your weight.
