    lol, a hang glider might be smaller as well:p
  • I remember, as a child, being terrified that if a strong wind came I would get pulled up into the air with the kite. I can easily see that actually happening with such a beast. :D

  • Neat kite! Try not to fly away!

    I once built kites, and even managed to tweak one until it reached 800 meters in altitude.

    'Twas a smallish kite, and hellish reel (multiple rolls joined to each other) of fishing line.

    Shitty video, but it's a beginning :)

    A little too windy and I was alone so took it quite slow....It was 15m/s up to 20m/s in the gusts...
