Trax IV Kiteboard: 80 kgs, what size?
Posted: Mon Jan 04, 2010 10:23 pm
Hi everybody,
I'm thinking about buying a F-One trax IV board (heard a lot of good stuff about it), but I was wondering which size I should get?
F-One Trax 4 (IV) - 132 x 38cm
F-One Trax 4 (IV) - 134 x 39cm
F-One Trax 4 (IV) - 136 x 40cm ?
I weigh around 80 kgs and kite out at sea, and just cruise up 'n down so far so I guess I'm intermediate level (I do wanna learn how to do some jumps soon, though).
I found someone who has the 132 x 38 cm for sale at a reasonable price, so I was just wondering if that would be too small for my weight?
Another thing is that there are some minor shallow scratches on the surface of the board: will this do any harm riding-wise? I don't really care if it looks a little used but I still want it to glide through the water like it's supposed to...
Anyways thanks in advance for the info!
