First parafoil kite for this 48 year old.
Your browser does not support HTML5 video. Almost didn't buy this do to some of the other reviews, glad I did! First let me say that it takes more wind to fly this than I thought it would.Day one was 4-8mph wind. It would go up... and fall out of the sky. Repeatedly. Over and over. Uhg...Day two I had 12-20mph wind. No problem! It went up... and it flys! Pretty well I might add. I made my 21yo come outside, away from Neflix or the PlayStation or whatever screen was drawing his attention. With great protest he came outside. He refused to fly it for the first half hour. Then he started smiling. Then he reached out for the lines. Then he wouldn't give it back! Jerk... :-) That's his first time flying it in the video.It's 12 bucks, give it a try.

Not for kids, but teens and up can probably handle it. But takes practice, but worth the effort.
This was my first flyable kite and it's not too bad. I have no experience with them so I came up with this method of getting it into the air.First thing, forget the thing that comes with it for the strings.Next, lay the kite on the ground and unwind the strings out. Have a weight to hold the kite down while you unwind them.When they are all unwound, start at the kite and work your way back being sure the lines are not twisted. You want to end up with two parallel strings, never crossing. When you are done, separate them about 3' apart. Be sure the kite if facing leading edge up or toward you.Now go back to the kite, pick it up by the strings right where they attach to the attachment points for on the kite. (See the instructions that come with the kite.)Now holding just the strings about 1' away from the attachment point, get the leading edge up by holding your arms about 3' apart and raising the kite till the wind grabw it.Gently give out a little more string thru each hand. The kite is flown by pulling the two strings. If you allow one out and the other not that will be like pulling that string and the kite will fly in that direction. So let the wind take the kite and keep the strings equal as best you can.About 15' out the kite should fly pretty easily. Someplace between 15' and 25' out you can start to learn to fly it, but be careful if the wind is strong it can rip the strings thru your hand. But here you can make small adjustments in your pull to see how the kite flies.The next part is the hardest. You want to get the kite up and out as fast as you can, but the wind will want to pull the strings thru your hands/fingers and it will burn. The goal is to get to the handles as fast as you can, but keep the kite in the air. This will take a few, okay, several tries. Once you master it you will have the handles in your hands and it's a super cool feeling.Now you can learn how to fly the kite. Watch for erratic winds. The wind will want to toss the kite around. Learn to react fast and smooth but don't over react.From there it's just fun. :-)

Beware bad reviews!
Great kite for the price! The quality is better than I expected, I did not have to re-tie any of the bridle rigging and all stitches were intact. The lines are pretty standard and fair quality. Buying them separately costs more than I payed for the entire kit, a great deal! There is no need to “untangle” the lines.I gave four stars because the bridle is a little too high so the pull/response is a little low. This is a great for beginners as it comes. After I adjust the bridle and shorten the strings to my liking, this kite will no doubt fly very well.A few tips:Fly in the correct wind range and be sure there is plenty of space to prevent turbulence.Learn basic kite knots. A larks head is perfect for connecting the lines.Use the winding tool that came with the kite. Do not wind the lines separately, wind them exactly as they came when you are done. Start at the other end though as they are backwards.This is not for flying the kite, it’s for storing the lines.FLY IN CORRECT WIND RANGE! This kite has performed well in up to 25-30 mph winds. More than this and you risk breaking lines or damaging the kite.Learn to launch a stunt kite. If you dont have someone with you, use sand to weigh it down or place the kite against a fence/shrub/basketball hoop pole. Where I fly I use shrubs or the basketball hoop. DO NOT start near the kite and “let a little line out of each hand. This is a great way to hurt yourself and you may never get the thing in the air.Have fun!
