You wouldn't ask this question if you were ready for huge kiteloops.

As for the board: something with a lot of rocker for easier landings, boots for more control at high speed, popping and landing.

Bring your own gear, kites are expensive and fragile. It's only normal that they charge that much for rental.

Seems like a 2005 north vegas 14m, not a bad kite but very outdated by todays standards. The kite has no depower, will have a very narrow wind range. Do what the others said: get lessons and ask the instructor what sizes you'll need at your home spot. Go for equipment that's no older than 5 years, e...

Slingshot asylum, love it for it's smooth ride, no spray, huge pop, soft landings. Don't like the upwind that much, but that's to be expected from a wakestyle oriented board.

Nice vid but to be fair, only 2 loops in that clip were kota worthy, the one in Greece is a nice one.

Most of the loops were filmed with a gopro from straight under the rider, they weren't that impressive at all. I do prefer your other videos with more diversity though, always good fun.

Cut the chain and man up? Tell her you want to go and be done with it. Should have teached her to kite when you started the relationship, that solves all problems.

No problems yet, works like a charm.

Have you had a backside edge crash with boots yet?
