My absolute two favourite things..... camping and kiting! Hows the Switch kite.... I've been sussing them out just recently.

lol your wearing a steamer

I started with a Method 1 12m then bought a 9m, good for learning on, great relaunch heavy bar pressure.
I got an Element 7m for strong winds, very fast turning kite.
I then got a Nitro11 8m on loan in Sept 2012 and kept it.
I sold my other kites and got a Nitro11 12m my fav kite, stable, fast easy to control, light bar pressure.
I just bought a 16m Nitro11, and can now kite in 10 knot winds, its huge and pulls like a train, still turns
pretty quick for a 16m.
I have had great service from Switch out of NZ, they have repaired lines and rips quickly and well, the quality of the
kites is superior IMHO to other more expensive kites. Good value, GST free, shame the OZ $ has dropped 10%.

I plan on updating my kites every 12 months, so I am selling my 8m ATM, will prob buy the same kite again.

i often ask foreigners where the best place they kited at in oz was and the more seasoned ones allways tell me sandy bay its something i must do.

whats with the big kites tho i thought she was ment to be 20+knots there when is its season? and whats it cost a night to camp there? allso is there a toilet block with a shower or is it just a long drop dunny or is it a walk for a minute and dig a hole with a garden trowl ? thanks heaps for any info im jelous.

Col , I will be up there Sept 27 - Oct 5th .. Staying at Yardy Creek Caravan Park .. Look out for me if you are around . Cabrinha Switchblace kites ... Cheers Jim.
