Our Kite Flying Adventures

Reviews, Flying Log And Records

NOTE: This page and all the links from it will not be updated further. This is because they have been replaced by the kite flying blog as of 8 Oct 2007. Read on if you are interested in historical info!

This kite flying page started when all we had was a little baby sled kite we got for our toddler son, Aren. See the picture... Since then, we have moved on to making and flying a series of small flat kites from bamboo BBQ skewers and freezer bag plastic. Don't laugh, they're quite efficient!

For how long and how high can we fly these kites? We have fun trying to set personal records with them.

Check out our kiting adventures log, which grows from week to week, and sometimes even day to day!

In future we'll be reviewing other kites, probably from on-line kite shops.

Some day we might get into the more expensive power and traction kiting. Kite buggying will be more our style I think, rather than skimming around in the surf. Heck, you might get wet doing that. :-) And at my age, totally stuffed after 15 minutes in the water...

MBK Flying Skewers And Plastic is a fun publication for single-line kite lovers. Learn how to make a new kite every month! Subscribing to this FREE monthly newsletter has to be the easiest way to keep in touch with what's happening on this website.
