Hey People,
I am going to Cumbuco the 20th December until the 20th of January...I will more than likely travel up the coast rather than spending the full month in Cumbuco.. I have been on the internet reading up as much as i can about my trip..I have read a few places that you should have a 14m kite with for this time of year..Is this nescessary?? My plan was to take my 8,10 and 12meter Bandit 4 kites using my Monk 135x42 board..My weight is about 100 kgs (after dinner :-)

) so i am hoping that the 12 enough???
Hope someone in here has got some answers ;-)

Alan....

With your weight a 14 will be important to have.
Bring all. But I doubt you will be using your 8 a lot, maybe in Jeri few times.

Thanks for the answer Toby,dont want to take a 14 with me ....
I have decided to change my plans and got to Kenya or Vietnam instead...
Seems like more wind there at that time of year............

don't look at the forecasts!

Good luck and let us know how it went!
