Don't buy anything until you get a lesson unless you have already had one.

HasselFree,
Noel is right on the lesson thing. There is too much to learn from a bro on the beach. I live in Buxton NC (Cape Hatteras). I was fortunate enough to take the zero to hero class from Real. Everything from self rescue, bar tuning, self launches, to kite care on top of learning how to ride. Seems like there are a few schools around FL. It would be wise. If not come up to Hatteras in the spring and get some barrels too.

Now what I want to know from you is where should I go Wed, Thur for this front that's coming through. I surf. Got into kiting this year cause too many flat days with wind. I'm in FL til Jan 5 and I want to catch the gulf firing. Where to go for good surf?
Thanks in advance,
Dan
