My 10 year old son has been enjoying using a 2m trainer kite on land for a while. Loves it.

We're at the end of the season now in WA, so when it starts up again later in the year, I'd like to get him in the water and receive some professional instruction - how to launch/fly/land the kite and body drag, to start with.

Then I anticipate spending time with him doing more of that, gradually letting him build competence and confidence. I don't intend to take him out when its blowing over 20kts, not for his first season anyway.

So I'm thinking, what kite and control system? Any ideas or recommendations? Thanks, Mark.
