Kiting 101 |
| EXAMPLE: 3-20 MPH with long lines, and a beginner flier. The kite may need 5 MPH just to fly, versus an expert flyer on shorter lines and/or a high grade line may be able to fly the same kite in 2 MPH. |
| EXAMPLE: 3-20 MPH a kite that is rated to fly in winds up to 20 MPH may be able to withstand the wind, but other things come into play. If the bridle (the thing you attach your lines to) is adjusted, nose back (for more radical flight), the kite may not handle over 15 MPH. With the nose pulled forward, the kite may handle 25MPH. A rating of 20 MPH does not mean the kite is unbreakable when hitting ground in less than 20MPH. There are accessories such as wind brakes that can be attached to a kite that will help it fly at the top of its given wind range, or even higher wind. |
