Going to Joned for the first time this weekend. Are we talking HR kite size? Sauvies kite size? I have no clue what kind of wind to expect.

Any help will be greeted with great respect and honor heaped upon you. Smile

I've ridden everything there except a 5 m. Most of time it has been the bigger kites. Take um all. Best be safe and take them all.

Depends. I have been there on big kite days (11m) but I know that when the weather is nice you can frequently get smaller kite days as well. I'd bring as many as you have / have room to bring. Never hurts to have options.

Why waste forum space with this?
First rule, on the first day of your kiteboard (or windsurf) life:
ALWAYS BRING EVERYTHING!!

Sorry Wylie,

I only have two kites, and wanyed to make sure one would work. Maybe like the industry section there should be a kook section. I hate to offend.
