So, I was helping a friend learn to kite safely and away from most other people and when we got to how to pick the right kite size for the conditions (wind, water, forecast, etc) and got back to the main area with others we both noticed that;
some folks always pick the smallest kite possible, even if it not enough to be fun
some folks always pick the largest kite possible, even if it too much to be fun
some folks always pick the same size kite, whether it is too big or small to be fun
And rarely did we see folks pick the best side kite for them and their ability & conditions.
Same where you ride or just a local thing? We tried to figure out why and got basically nowhere. Which of these are you and why?
