Im addicted!
First and foremost I wanna say thanks to everyone here on this forum. I have learned sooooo much information from this site and the videos are sweet too. Anywho I just took my second lesson today in 25+ gusty conditions. Body dragging like a champ, Did a bunch of kiteloops or down loop whatever you call it. Was even riding for a bit till the winds calmed. I was on a 16m and it felt soooo sweet...So stoked to be off a trainer kite
 thx I have found the new love of my life and its kiteboarding..

It is addictive, still remember my first body dragging sessions. Pretty amazing sensation. You had a 16 m up in 25 mph+? Who is your instructor?

yep
Sergei from KGB KGBkiteboarding.com Im a bigger guy at 260 and the wind was dying throughout the day. It was sweet though, second lesson and second time have good windy conditions. Ill be starting out w/ a 20m and as I progress maybe goto a 16 for windy days. It was a nice difference from the trainer kite..way more power but it seemed more responsive and easy to control.
Update: that wind report was from the news 25+ was incorrect. I checked NOAA for the 24 hr report and it was more like 17 knots :mrgreen: Now time to pinch some pennies and get one more lesson and Im straight.
