Whether you need a trainer kite really depends on what you will use it for. Of course, a trainer kite is great for learning some base skills, however when it comes to actually developing the correct muscle memory for kiting, in most cases its best to simply fly a full size kite in your lessons. The reason is, the differences between a trainer kite and a full kitesurfing kite make learning on a trainer kite run the risk of creating bad habits... so for most people, they only use the trainer kite for the first half -1 hour and then they quickly progress to the full size kiteboarding kite and never use the trainer kite again.
Why should you buy a trainer kite? What I like about trainer kites is that they are fun to fly. This means if you have friends or family that might use your trainer kite on the beach to play with, then its a good idea to get one. This way you can use the trainer kite for a few days before your first kiteboarding lessons, and then once you progress to the full kites, your friends can still play with the trainer while down the beach while you're out there kitting. I would say thats the main reason i think someone should get a kitesurfing trainer kite... if they plan to get more use out of it in the future. On top of that, if you don't plan to take lessons for a while (as in weeks away), then its a good idea to get a trainer kite and use that time to master flying the trainer. This will help you develop skills that cross over into the big kites, particularly if you get very good at it. But as above, really I've found the main use for a trainer kite is in the first hour or so that gives you the base feeling and concept, after that you are simply learning to to fly the trainer kite, which is quite different to how to fly a full kiteboarding kite. Hope this helps.
