Wind reading skills ensure you choose the right kite size and stay safe. Learn to use anemometers and recognize natural wind indicators.

Natural Indicators

Small wavelets indicate 10-12 knots, whitecaps suggest 15-20 knots, spray blown off waves means 25+ knots. Watch flags, trees, and other kiters for real-time assessment.
