Buying Guide

Harness

When buying your own equipment, start with buying a harness that truly fits you. Even if you only want to buy one piece of equipment and keep renting, we recommend buying your own harness. If you have the chance to test different ones in action, do it! If not, go with the one that feels most comfortable to you. As harnesses are not too expensive, it is always possible to buy a different one later on if you do feel you have issues or pain when kitesurfing.

Board

Board Size

Your board size depends on your weight and size. Board sizes range from 130cm to 165cm, for normal freeride kitesurfing in moderate wind conditions you will be looking at board sizes between 133cm - 145cm depending on your size and weight. A 2m guy does need a bigger board then a 1.5m kite chica :)

In general, try to go with a bigger board in the beginning, as it will make it easier to ride upwind in lighter winds. Personally, we have also found that a slightly larger board will help you jump higher and progress faster as an intermediate and advanced kitesurfer, as it can build up more pressure for your jumps. As a reference, I am 168cm, 53kg and ride a 137x41 cm board. Brendan is 175cm, 63kg and rides a 139x41.5 cm. These are definitely big boards for our sizes, but we prefer it as it is great for light wind days and getting a powered up feeling for jumps and tricks.

Board Type

The type of board is also important. Boards have different shapes, rocker, flex and stiffness. Without going too much into detail, most kite brands categorize their boards and as a beginner kitesurfer, a board from the category Freeride or Allrounder will be a good choice for you. They have a moderate rocker and flex, therefore making it a forgiving board in almost all conditions.

Most importantly, you should try the board if you get the chance to. Some people prefer stiffer over more flexible boards and therefore it is vital to know and have tried the board in various conditions before you buy.

In our opinion we recommend beginners to stick to riding with straps. You don´t benefit from riding boots unless you start freestyle tricks. With straps, you will decrease the risk of breaking a leg when crashing a trick.

Kite & Bar

Kite sizes

When choosing your kite size you should think about where you will be kitesurfing the most and what the prevailing wind conditions are at this spot. It also depends if you want to buy a 2 or 3 kite setup. For most people, a 9,12m or 7,9,12m set up is a good start and covers a big wind range. If you know you will be kiting mostly in light wind, move the sizes up 1 or 2. Same for your size. For girls, an 8,11m setup for 2 kites might be a better choice and bigger guys more a 10,13m. We recommend not going too far apart in sizes if you only go for a 2 kite setup, espessicaly if you have smaller size kites. Go for maximum 3 sizes apart to make sure you cover all of the wind range.

Kite shape

The best shapes for beginners are delta or bow kites. Stay away from C kites when you start, even though a lot of pros ride them, they get advertised a lot and you find they are super cheap online. C kites are good for freestyle and certain disciplines, but they also have different characteristics and work well only in smaller wind ranges. Delta kites are good all-around kites, cover a big wind range meaning you can kite in almost all conditions with a small number of kites. The kites are very forgiving in almost all conditions and can be used up to a highly advanced level unless you start going into wave or freestyle kitesurfing.

Kite Bar

It is always easiest to buy all your kites from one brand and the matching bar with it. You will only really need one bar for all of your kites. It is possible to use a kite bar from one brand with kites from a different brand but depending on the design of both bar and kite, it might not fly perfectly. Kites will always fly best with the bar designed from the same brand. If you can, we recommend to stick with one brand.
