Power Kites or Power Foils
Power kites or foil kites have been around for a number of years now, these are also known as sports kites although this terms is more associated with dual line delta wing kites. The smaller dual line and quadline kites are able to turn at rapid rates and give hours of fun and enjoyment. Flying dual line power kites is much the same as flying either a sports or stunt kite.

Do not be put off by the term power kites, this name is a simple comment on what the kite can achieve, and hence the term power kiting is very common as these are also used for land boards and buggies, snow boarding, kite surfing e.t.c where you need a resonable amount of pull (power) although these days most people use a quad line kite for these sports For Delta Wing Sports Kites Then Click Here

Flying A 2 Line Power Kite
Flying Kites is an enjoyable activity that just about everyone can do. Steering a kite is much like riding a bike when you turn the handle bars left you steer left, so when you want the kite to fly to the left you pull slightly on the left hand, and right when you want to fly it to the right. You may see people making fast movements and struggling to control there kite this is because they are not using "Slow controlled movements" these are best as sudden jerky moves will normally result in your kite nose diving and hitting the ground. One of the best things you see is people lifting your hands up over your head in an effort to make the kite fly upwards - although it looks impressive it actually does absolutely nothing!

When you are new to kites it is a whole lot easier to have someone with you. Get the person your are with to hold the kite up from behind, holding it firmly, but allowing a little tension between the two of you so that the flying lines are off the ground. If you helper is struggling to hold the kite then I would suggest they let go as soon as you are ready as the winds are strong enough, and the kite will soar off into the air. Try to keep the lines evenly balanced to ensure stable flight, and with practice you can slowly start to make small turns left & right. It won't take long to get control.

If you crash your kite and the line gets twisted then carefully wind the handles around each other until the twists disappear. This is much easier than trying to un-rotate you kite.

To land the kite, you need to fly it out to the edge of the wind and steer gently toward the ground. The idea is to reach the ground about the same time the kite reaches the edge of the wind.

Advice & Safety Information
Flying Kites Can Be Great Fun - However to some who have never flown a kite it can be a nuisance.

Remember this basic advice and you should have many happy hours flying kites.

1) Never fly kites over other peoples heads or in an area where someone else may become injured from an out of control kite.
2) Keep away from overhead power & telephone lines.
3) Don't fly close to roads, landing a kite in a road could cause a serious accident.
4) Don't fly near airports.
5) Don't fly your kite in winds stronger than recommended.
6) Animals like dogs may attack your kite when you land it

REMEMBER SAFETY IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE FLYER, NOT THE SPECTATOR!
