29er kite sounds about right to me. Great on windward/leeward. But a bit of a beast on a beam reach.

Well don't go on a beam reach then  . set only windward/leewards. It could be the class(tera) course. Also i think the tera would probably need the longest genni pole as pos. To keep the nose out of the water to stop uber pitchpoles also it would look rele cool! Wat do we reckon a 4000 sized genni pole? if it doesnt fit center then why not make it offset?

the 4000 pole is probs about 6ft and a bit long
its a beast but it would give the tera an immense amount of bow lift. Failing that why not hav an 18ft skiff style pole which is fixed?
