NO




You will also need a 12m kite to cover you, either bow or c type, BOW kite will cover more range and progress you faster

But switching back and forth between c and bow can be a bit confusing to a newer kiter, right?

So just stick with one or other

either bow or c


point is he still needs a 12m to cover



bows do help learn faster
