First kite and gear
Maybe there are already a lot of posts like this, but I’ll give it a try :)
I’m 95 kg, a beginner, and I can ride upwind.
I’m looking to buy gear to ride here in the Netherlands.
I already got a 145 CrazyFly board to help me build confidence during the first year.
I found a North Reach 9m for €400 in decent condition. I’m planning to get a 12m as well to cover lighter wind.
The bar will most likely be from North too.
Does this setup make sense? Are these sizes suitable for my weight? And is €400 a good price for a 9m Reach?
