How big a kiteboard should I choose?
If you live in a high wind area (15+ knot most of the time) you should choose a smaller kiteboard around your height for directional or 1′ shorter than your height for bi-directional board. If you live in a light wind area (5 to 15 knots most of the time), you should choose a larger kiteboard 1′ longer than your height for directional or the same length as your height for bi-directional board.
If you live in a high wind area (15+ knot most of the time) you should choose a bidirectional kiteboard around 40cm shorter than your height. If you live in a light wind area (5 to 15 knots most of the time), you should choose a larger kiteboard (10cm shorter than your height for bidirectional board or 30cm longer than your height for directional).

If you ride in waves, use a directional board from 5′ to 6’1″ depending on your height.
