can you narrow it down a bit? there is a lot of coast in qld, and very different conditions along it

true! i have had it nuke in far north queensland

southeast- gold and sunshine - i have a 6m 7m 8m 9m and 11m - unusual quiver i know... but windy as

in new cal everyone seems to own a 9m - nothing else - awesome for budgeting...

do you use small kites much? - 6m 7m.. and 14s? kina over lugging around loads of kites - 3 would be good....

85 kg have 4 mutiny C kites.

8-10-12-14 .........

Not a fan of my 14. Way to slow, it's like steering a 747. A good cruiser but not a must.
Can't seperate my 8-10-12. Beautiful kites,covers most conditions. Have been overpowered on my 8 once or twice & they were the best boosting sessions I've had.
I would never waste my money on a 6.

If I could only have 3 kites it would definitely be 8-10-12.

Most guys here run 8 and 12 m torches so if you add a 14 to that you'll get more bottom end

Get your arse into NQ by mid week, Mackay north, You will probably be able to use your 6.
