I agree. Sherman IS NOT a beginner spot! People need to stop selling it as if it was.
Unless you do a downwinder from kiteopia.

downwinder doesnt address the dificulties of the crowded landing and many times the realization that the wind is much stronger or has built at the landing and kiter is overpowered.

oh well. its not gonna change.
