My 2nd Cody Warkite Success

Bamboo and tissue Cody kite.
Hi there, me again Mark from the philippines. This is my 2nd Cody kite made from bamboo sticks, japanese paper, paste and string.
There's a kite making and flying competition in our school. Me and my friends decided to make and join. I know my friends don't have experience in making the Cody but I need crews to speed up. After 5 hours, we finished the kite.
Many students said: "your kite will fail" and we were sad in that time.
Flying hour it was successfully flown. They can't believe it we won 1st place wouuu. Hayahay!

So, could you do me just a small favor?

Hey - grab your free e-book first :-)
I'm referring to Simplest Dowel Kites, my popular kite-making download. It's a printable PDF file. Make a diamond, delta or sled. Each kite is capable of flying hundreds of feet up for hours on end.
Could you do me just a small favor though?
