Great package for beginner
This was a great deal for someone just starting out. I got a 12m kite, and the overdrive bar which both work awesome. The harness I got was good, but I have decided to order another one too just so I have more than one option to use. The leash that came with this package was really short so I did end up buying a couple other longer leashes too. But overall this package as is was perfect for me as a beginner.
