If you are new to power kiting, I would suggest you buy a 4 or 5 m Ozone Flow. Very forgiving in gusts, they just absorb them nicely. Also, they are very stable on the edge of the wind and don't just throw a fit and collapse. If money is an issue, try to buy a Ozone Cult second hand of ebay. Don't start on a Samurai or a Flexifoil Bullet, they can be quite a handful for the inexperienced kiter. Hope this helps.
