Do you think this equipment is worth buying?

Better to buy one newer kite than 3 very old ones.

Also thinking about safety...that old gear was not safe.

Let us know which conditions you plan to kite in and what weight you have so we can help you with a kite size to buy if you can only afford one.

Thank you for your response.
My weight is about 56 KG.
I am a beginner (just finished lesson 3 - 6H of kiting), still have a lot to learn, but, also I want to equipment that will stay with me for some time (not a fat, wide board that I will get rid of after 1 -2 months).
I am from Israel, here the winds are about 12-20 in the season.
I will be glad to hear your recommendations.
Also, I was with a hybrid kite in my lessons (pretty sure it was hybrid and not the C shape).

I don’t have your weight, so can only assume them advice.

But I know riders with your weight and I think they would be on a 10 in those conditions.

And if you always have those winds, you only need one kite.

Given the above, all these 3 kites can be considered dangerous for you, as soon as there is enough wind to launch them.

Speak to your kite instructor.

Hey everyone,
I just started kiting, until ow I used the equipment of a friend.
I am a student and can't allow myself to buy "new from the nylons" equipment.
I got an offer:
Three kites:
Wipika Wip 2004 - 16m, Ocean Rodeo Bronco 2004 - 14m, Cabrinha Nitro 12m.
Plus 3 mountains board.
Harness, helmet, and bar included.
All of this at 760 USD (990 Australian dollars).
I am not sure if it worth it, I have no experience with kites, and I don't know if they won't unwind (break apart or something like that) because they are that old (2004).
Is it a bad deal?

Thanks!

Joke????

Yup. Same question every 6mnths.
