What are the chances for wind in the Newport area? Thinking of going but would like a locals perspective before making the trek. What size kite is normal for this time of year with a 150 lb guy on a surf board?

Forecast looks really good for N at Fart Stevens! Take all your kites and a big board. My hunch is that it's going to be 11meter and a surfboard for me. I'm a light 220lbs. Look for a big group of people flying waroo kites! _________________ Hey, I'm being hahahahahrassed!
