hi, just want to start playing around in the surf more. have a 5'11 lying around and want to get some input from the forum on whether it will be suitable for me.
i am around 6ft tall 85kg. got 10 and 8 naish parks. the board is fairly small with quite a bit of rocker so be good to know what size kite to use for each wind range as i am new to this.
Go pick up a board or two in a kite shop to get a feel for shape and rocker, then try find similar look/feel on a gumtree board or in cashies. Old is still ok, but that nose and rocker will probably kill the fun for you Good luck
i guess ill just have to give it a crack. was given the board for my 14th birthday and even then it was probably too small for me to learn to surf on. i reckon the rocker will really kill my speed. regarding the wine rack....emptied it prior weekend :D
seen load of surfer on 8m kites... but i reckon ill need my 10m for anything under 20 knots still with this board...
