SLED

This kite was designed in the fifties by two Americans, Alison and Scott. The funny thing is that they didn't do it together actually they didn't know that they did it at the same time.
The kite is very easy to fly and could be flown in almost any wind. If adjustments of the kite are necessary it is done with the tail. In very light wind you have to shorten the tail and in strong wind you can add an extra tail.

 

1. Draw the lines and cut out.

2. Cut 2 sticks of the same length as the kite.

 

3. Cut the pieces of tape and put them as described in the drawing..

 

4. The tails should be about 6 feet. Attach them with tape.

5. Take a 4 feet long string and attach each end to the keels. Tie a loop in the exact middle of the string.

6. Now you can attach your kite line to the bridle and let the kite fly..
