You should do great with that gear. The Spleene 54 Door is IMO THE best board for a beginner (or even great for experts)...and it will not limit your abilities.

I have one and ride it all the time...while most other people sit on the beach.


With that board and those kites you should be able to ride in 10 to 30 knots, depending on your weight, skill level, etc.


Good luck with everything
