Re: Kiteboarding, kite question
both great all around kites and will do whatever you want
and take lessons so your instructor can help you decide
if no lessons, make sure you tell people which hospital you decide

Welcome to the forum. The 2013 Slingshot Rally does not come in a 13m(14 or 12m). Use the search function and you will get some very good ino on the Rally.Edd wrote:Hello everyone, I'm new to the Kiteboarding, I'm will buy a equipment and I know that depends on what really you want but I wanna to know that its your opinion between SLINGSHOT kite RALL 2013, 13 meters vs OZONE CATALYST 2013 14 meters....

Re: Kiteboarding, kite question
As a begineer I gained very beneficial information from my 3 day instruction. It helps a lot and strongly recommend you to take lessons prior to your adventure. Otherwise you may have some unwanted conclusions.
Size of the kites matter based on the loocation and your weight. Your instructor will also guide on that.

Re: Kiteboarding, kite question
Does the OP sound like he's asking you to tell him to take classes? 
I'm tired of looking at topics where instead of answering the OP's questions, they say to "take classes." Like everyone is so dumb and without friends that taking classes is the only thing on the planet and kitesurfing is all about taking classes.
Incredibly rude... knotwindy and Ozzie
