  • My 2,110th kite video. With very few days suitable for flying recently, I found a short opportunity to get some kites into the air.

    Cool show Jim. I love the red canard. I have the green one and a yellow one. Wish I could of gotten a red one also. Ron

      As you probably know, Ron, the red Canard Delta is exclusive to Metropolis Drachen in Germany, but they will post almost anywhere (postage is not cheap, of course). A nice kite in any colour, anyway.

    Three unusual kites, the Kachina’s design and artwork particularly so. I imagine that a steady breeze is needed for that one.

      It's reasonable good in a wide range of winds, but I usually keep it for light-wind conditions where it seems to be at its best.

    3 random kites that look great together in the sky

      Thank you! I wish I'd had time to fly more, but maybe next time, although the way our weather is lately that seems unlikely.

    Nice video for a short fly Jim. That Roller is a great looking kite. Thanks Jim!

      The Roller is certainly one of my favourite kites, Dewey - looks great, and flies beautifully. Glad you enjoyed the video.

    Nice!

    Another three of your nicest kites. The Kachina is a great kite design to copy and of course to fly. I am catching up on your videos.

    • @JimNicholls

      I know someone who made a couple of copies of the Kachina-style kite, Carl, using shower curtains, but I don't think he flies them very often.

    You have very interesting kites in a late afternoon. Excellent😀

      Thank you. I didn't expect to fly that day, so it was a bonus.

    Today the wind looks like very stable

    • @JimNicholls
      @JimNicholls  Před 2 měsíci

      That was one of our best days recently. As you know, the wind is not often suitable these days.
