Quad line Kite,
Designed and Manufactured by David Davies of England

If you are into Quad line kite then this is one that you will want to try out. The kite has a unique way of flexing while in flight which actually enhances its speed, handling and maneuverability. This is due in large part to the fact that the leading edge is bent or curved. As the kite goes faster and the wind exerts more force on the kite sail, the leading edge flexes further. A situation where the kite keeps tuning itself into the perfect shape for it's present speed.

Add a pair of 50' or 100' tails to this and you are looking at some serious fun.

I flew this kite at the 1999 Weifang Kite festival in China and captivated the attention of several hundred people. They were awestruck by the ability of this quad line kite to spin and prance around the sky while the tails oscillated in the wind. 

David, the maker, says that more bizarre set-up scenarios are possible. For example? Try putting a 50' or even a 100' tail on one side ONLY! The result? Well, the kite flies but you had better have strong forearms as this thing pulls hard to one side. Check them out at...
