i have a few in the closet from years ago but they are kinda beat up from flying them underwater and in the surf. my son is at an age that i think he could handle one now. his school has a huge field next to it so we have a place to fly them. you can fly them side by side and wrap and unwrap strings while doing stunts. i've been lifted off the ground more than once. :blsmoke:



3 people flying 3 kites side by side.....YouTube - Crazy stunt kite flying master


going to 4 strings gives full control.......YouTube - Revolution kite in Cairns Australia


then we go BIG..........YouTube - Power Stunt Kite at Baankrood Beach

Kites Rule! My dad used to send 'messages' or 'notes' to the kite. He would send a paper from holder way up to kite. Kind of fun if you have never done. Man I was in great kite weather today, and road was closed.... darn an other time.
