What kind of kite is your favorite?

There is one kite which is the king of kites.

It is made from common newsprint and thin slivers of bamboo or reed. I have long loved these fragile beauties, and dreamed if having a village contest sponsored by a newspaper.

So how about an international contest, sponsored by hundreds of newspapers?

I've always loved a brightly colored plain diamond-shaped kite with streamers for a tail! They are so pretty, so simple & a lot of fun. I watch the kite flyers here - we have a group of engineers who get together & MAKE kites - they experiment with everything, every shape & size - then they go to the park once a month (conditions permitting!) & fly!!! So cool!

Kites are very popular & if you have a hobby shop near, I'm sure they will sell them. Good luck, have fun!!!

Try a "Stunt" kite they have two strings with handles and you can direct them back and forth, up and down and the like. You'll need a little more wind to keep it up. The beach is a perfect place because often you will have a nice steady wind. Have fun.

my favorite kites are the double stringed ones the one where you have to pull the right handle towards you i the kight is falling left same with left handle./if you have one of these you can do sweet tricks and you will have the best kite around

regardless of takes place to be in my hand on the time. LOL. in many cases kites I made myself are extra exciting than kites offered at a shop. My well known is a double-sled kite I made. that's 18" tall. 2 lifting surfaces are 12" extensive each and each, and the "fins" on the facets upload yet another 6"+6" for an an-the-floor width of 36". The fin interior the middle, and the two lifting surfaces, supply it impressive stability. Being created from a tall kitchen trash bag with 3 bamboo longerons makes it easy-weight, so it relatively is a very sturdy easy wind flier. i like to purpose to fly fighter kites. they're exciting basically whilst the wind is quite secure. whilst that's not, then I stick a tail on 'em. inspect the "classic hata kite" at intothewind DOT com. on the coastline, I fly a "Cody professional kite." you may google for this. final yet no longer least, I additionally % to fly a "ability sled 24." you may google for this. some human beings use those for kite aerial photographs. i does no longer. lots as i admire my kite, if I had a digicam i might circulate with the subsequent extra desirable length i think of (the flexibility sled 36). I actually have a lot of different kites. a number of them pull too complicated, and a few do no longer fly ok, and a few... the two.
