Hey guys
Looking for some help....
Just starting out...around 78kgs have done lots of surfing, windurfing, skiing. Looking at Cabrinha Switchblade 12m 2017/18 as my first kite. With my past experience in the water, do you think the SB is the right kite to go for?
Cheers

Just remember to wear a skirt over your wetsuit or we'll see your bump.

Switchblades a decent kite to start on, ozone catalyst is renowned as a decent beginner kite and to progress on, I've just chose them for my kite school, for WA an 7/8 10 mtr quiver at standard weight is generally the go, if it all goes to shidt take up windsurfing, pm me if you need any info, also there's a kitesurfing section here on seabreeze

He gets to the bit where he demonstrates how to handle the donkey dick, then someone calls the police
