i'm looking at getting a closeout liquid force the wife, and not sure what size is going to be 'too much board' for her. she's 120 lbs and is mowing the lawn upwind. she has an old LF element 128 that she is refusing to ride in any conditions. she grabs my 138 X 40 and likes it better, but i can see...

I just found the info I was looking for http://www.kiteforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=2298912&start=10 its the wife i'm worried about here. if she can't go upwind, she can't kite galleon. it also doesn't look like she can kite orient either with the dedicated launch with IKO certifications or whateve...
