Kite Ranges
2008 Monkeykites Griffins are suitable for riders of all skill levels. Kite range depends heavily on a combination of factors; the rider’s skill level, the board size and the wind and water conditions. The table below is indicative only and is estimated for an intermediate 80kg rider on a medium sized twin tip board. We do not give wind ranges above 30 knots as the ability of the rider plays a large role in performance at that speed.
