Re: Sharm el Sheikh kite sizes

I kited in Sharm 3 years ago in December and I went to Kitejunkies. I was early in the learning process and they were very helpful. I nice couple from Europe runs the opp. The location is very good with a large protected lagoon and mostly waist deep water. They have kite candies on the beach to help...

Re: Aruba in October?

It's gusty at Fisherman's hut beach or as the locals said "Disgusting"! I didn't think it was that bad but maybe that's because i was on my first vacation in a few years and just happy to be able to walk to the kite beach and kite every day. Stay away from the Lee of the hotels and you should be alr...

Re: Nobile NHP or Jimmy Lewis Model 3?

Thanks for all the input! As an intermediate rider advancing quickly I'm looking for a board that will help me take my riding to the next level. I'm still smoothing out my transitions and just getting into jumping. 75% of my riding is in flat water or lgt chop but living on the E coast of Florida ha...

Re: Nobile NHP or Jimmy Lewis Model 3?

Thanks for the input! Any recommendations on size? My Nobile T5 (my first board) is 137x41 and I weigh 195 lbs. I usually fly my SB 12m but also have a 8m for when it smokes. I was planning to get something a bit shorter and keep the T5 for lighter days. Doug

Nobile NHP or Jimmy Lewis Model 3?

I'm thinking of upgrading from my Nobile T5 to the new Nobile NHP but I've always been attracted to the Jimmy Lewis boards. I'm very happy with Nobile thus far. Can anyone give me some good insight and sway me one way or the other? Thanks! Doug

Re: Aruba in October?

Sorry everyone! I haven't been on this site in awhile. Maybe i got lucky but my trip to Aruba in October last year was great. I was able to kite every day on my SB 12m at fishermans' hut and should have brought my 8m for one of the days. We stayed at the Marriott and I was able to walk down to fishe...

Aruba in October?

Anyone been to Aruba in October that can tell me what I can expect and what size kites to bring? I planned a trip there with my wife and then looked at the weather to find that October is one of the less windy months. I hope it's still rideable and maybe just not nuking. Thanks! DB

SB3's or SB/CB IDS's Hi Wind/Light Wind?

Thought I'd ask for some advice as I try to round out my quiver. I currently have a SB3 12m and a T5 137x41; I'm 195lbs. I live in Florida and summer on Cape Cod. I got allot of use out of my 12m this winter but missed some days being overpowered and even more underpowered recently. I've been eyeing...

Cape Cod & Nantucket Sound Kiting

I'm getting ready to head up to Cape Cod for the summer from Florida and I'm looking for insight into the conditions I can expect. I'm trying to round out my quiver to maximize the days I can kite. I'll be mid Cape in the Harwich area so will probably be looking to kite somewhere between Dennis and ...
