Don´t know any of those, ’cause I never bought stuff via internet. I just know that the following ones are pretty big:

http://www.kitepirates.de/
http://www.more-than-boards.com/
http://www.windgeister.de/
http://www.twintail.de/

You can also head down to Fehmarn (Windgeister), it´s a cool store and you can save the shipping and buy some cheap beer :cool2:

Of course he is a salesman, and prices are pretty high compared to Germany (and/or Internet shops). But I support small, personal businesses. I really got a good consultation and I can come back to him whenever something is wrong, and I am sure he will help me. Therefore I am willing to pay a higher price, it´s worth it.

Well, if you search something to keep you warm in the winter, I just can recommend you to take some time and head down to Solvgatan 9 in Malmö. Kent (On Top Windsurfing) really takes the time to explain you everything about his products (almost too much, missed the first half of the Chelsea-game yesterday ), and he knows them very well. That´s what I call a perfect consultation.

Looks like a typical westdrift from Sat on, hope GFS is right!

@skotten, from Kent

”Send my regards to Tony and his friend Niklas; I hope they have gotten a lot of kitesurf since last time I saw them!”

BTW, what kind of wet (or dry) suit do you use during wintertime?

Det är rätt, men det finns en laguner i Langebaan (Sharks Bay) som är mycket bra. Vatten är varm och det finns inte hajar, although the name tells so.

Jag var i Langebaan förra December, och det var mycket bra. Jag tänker att flygger till brasil ockso i December, men jag inte kenner brasil sa bra. Var ga du?

flyga till Cape Town om du har en möglighet. Det finns mycket vind, bra vader (inte sa het), snygge och manga spots och där är inte tid killnast.

I started Kitesurfing this summer with a Switchblade 12. I did never fly a crossbow, but I heard that the switchblade is the better choice for a beginner. As far as I concern my experience, I just can say that the switchblade is very easy to handle and makes several things pretty easy that might be very challenging for a beginner, e.g. relaunching the kite, jumping and riding gusty wind. A disadvantage are the bridles, you can´t really feel where the kite is.
Still, if you think about the future, you might want to learn with a C-Kite. It is a different way of kitesurfing, and for a good rider a C-kite will probably deliver more potential, especially when it comes to kiteloops, dynamic riding and linear power development. And, how skotten already said, the bow might be replaced in the future.

If you can, just test several different kites and make your own opinion, we are all individuals…
