Getting Started

Hi all.
I am sure this question has been posted a million times before but i am just after some advice on how to start kite surfing.
Me and my son who is 16 are looking to buy a kite to try out this sport but i could do with a bit of help to know what to buy or what not to buy. The ultimate aim is to get back on the water as we have both enjoyed a few years of waterskiing.
I realise that may be some time off as niether of us have flew a kite before but are keen to get started.
Cheers. Rick.

Firstly, get lessons, an absolute must.

Id hone up on your kite skills with a foil kite on land for a while, and then as bucksi says, grab yourself some lessons. You'll be up and riding far quicker than trying to teach yourself and you'll have the safety knowledge too.
