First of all in my opinion, I think is totally unnecessary to buy any kitesurfing equipment if you are a beginner on this sport. What I recomend you though is to take kitesurfing lessons with a quilified instructor first then you go and buy equipments.
Most instructors provide the necessary kitesurfing equipment. They can recommend the ideal kitesurfing equipment for you, because they know what is your height, weight, where and conditions of sail that you’re dealing with. But this doesn’t mean that we can’t offer some suggestions. Here are some FAQs that may help you choose what’s the ideal kitesurfing equipment for you:
What type of kite is the best? Foil, inflatable or hybrid?
Hybrid kite is the most recommended for beginners. They have two fabric layers, similar to the foil and they do not possess inflatable. Use the system of profile of double surface together with the frontal format in bow, eliminating the necessity of the a thousand lines of the muzzle. Great for kitesurfing beginners.
What kite size is right for me?
Kitesurfing beginners do not have notion of the force and power that a kite develops. In the first year of kitesurfing, even after finishing the course, it is indicated that the novices use kites smaller than 12. The worse accidents in kitesurf happened with inexperienced people trying to control big kites without any notion. So, it’s always good to follow all kitesurfing safety rules for your own security.
Should I buy two lines or four lines?
The two lines kite is much simpler to control and easy of relaunch being indicated for beginners. The purchase of a kite four lines can be made after completed the kitesurfing lesson. In most cases people buy the kite with 2 lines that can be converted to four lines.
What type of board should I buy?
Directional Board is most recommended. They are similar to surfboard, ideal in lighter to moderate winds (recommended for beginners) where you want a board that is responsive as there is less pull in the kite and your only power is generated by the wave. They possess two or three equal handles for the feet and keels similar to surfboard.
It’s always good to remember that all information provided in this blog doesn’t apply to everyone. Results may vary.
