Bring both suits, one for coast and bay and shorty for the delta. Bring the 6, 8 and 10m kites. Your 14 is the biggest, heaviest and takes up the most space and you probably don't need it. If you do, conditions are marginal anyway. For the last couple years, my biggest has been an 11m and now this year is a 10m...
Yes, no need for the 14m. I assume you are bringing a directional board for the coast, so in light wind you should be good with your directional and 10m.
I'd definitely pack that 14M kite in their also! It would be better if it were a 12M but there are many 15mph days at Bodega and Sherman where it may be handy. You shouldn't use it in the surf but if your an avid kiter you might as well bring it. How do you like the 14M RPM? and the 6m? Id love to try both those kites!
6,8,10,12 RPM's
