Is a Power Kite the Same as a Kite Surfing, Snowkiting or Traction Kite?
Some people get a bit confused at first on the terminology. A power kite is is any large controllable kite designed to provide significant pull to the user.

Which kind of kite should you buy?
That depends on your goal for learning how to kite. If you want to start kite surfing, then a trainer kite such as the RUSH PRO or HYDRA will work best. If you aim is to get into landboarding, buggy kiting or snowkiting, then check out the Beamer or Scout kites.

What is your top recommendation for a trainer kite?
We have seen that the HQ Hydra is the best overall trainer kite for most students who are looking to get into kite surfing. The reason is because a kiter can quickly transition from land to water to learn body dragging without switching kites and putting on a harness. It’s very practical to be able to take a kite you are already familiar with and start learning the water. The Hydra is the first and only water relaunchable trainer kite. It’s also a great kite for kayaks or tubes.
