Hi,

Me and a friend are coming to australia this summer (28june till 28th july) and staying in the gold coast area. We wanted to know which kite sizes we need in that period.

- 8m2
-10m2
-12m2

????????

And if someone knows great spots please let us know :D

Use the PM setting

Moustacheo is on the money - the predictable sea breeze is not here during winter
But fronts, occasional storms etc help.
Bigger the better kite/board size.
Rent a car and go south or fly way up north (trade winds)...

Enjoy anyway
