Hi all, i am going to be permanently relocating to the gold coast. I have about 4- 5 years kiting experience and ride a 128 TT and a 5 9" surfboard (strapped).

I am trying to decide on a new one kite quiver to bring with me. At the moment i cannot decide from a 10m to a 12m. (probably get a Griffin Argo 10m or 12m)

I am 68kg and just looking to get something that will get me out in as many conditions as possible in the Gold Coast area, likely Currumbin / Palm Beach and Kingscliff areas.

I dont really know local weather that well. ...

Greatly appreciate any advice.

Thank you

68kg bring the 10. Anything bigger and you will be sitting on the beach as soon as it gets good.
My main kite is an 11, but I'm heavier.
