I'm heading to the south of Brazil Florianopolis / Imbituba area around Feb/March.
Off season for kiting, but is it still worth taking the kites? if i'm there for a month or so how many days do you think i could expect? I have a 7m, 9m and 12m. Guessing I can leave the 7m at home? I use both twintip and surfboard.
would be great to hear the opinion of anyone that kites down there around that time.
Thanks
bob

hi, i am not familiar with Imbituba, but in Florianopolis you have to be lucky, some days you will have 15/25 knots others zero, depending on cold fronts moving by.on average, you will kite 0 to 5 days a week.flat water go to Lagoa ( lake) da Conceicao, ocean I suggest Praia do Campeche. good luck

I'm here yet a couple of days more
check my website on the blog
http://www.edmkpollensa.com/blog/
the reports are written in castellano but the pics talk by themselves
my guess: bring a big size and a 10 mts, if you want to spare the board, get a second hand surf board for little money
ah! and don't forget to visite Ibiraquera
best spot ever
