Choose The Right Shape

Get the Right String

Choose cotton or other non-abrasive strings instead of glass-powder-coated ones, as they are safer and reduce the likelihood of injuries.

Launch The Kite

Get ready to launch the kite by holding the thread in one hand and the kite in the other. As the wind picks up, release the kite and allow the wind to lift it. Gently pull on the thread as you let it go.

Let The Kite Fly Higher

Let the kite sway away from you, then give it a slight tug to make it soar higher. Be ready to adapt to the wind's shifting direction.

Cut The Kite

The goal of every kite flyer is to cut their opponent's kite. To do this, quickly bring your string close to their kite and cut it using friction.
