You don't have to be a kid to enjoy flying kites, only a kid at heart. There is something about flying a kite that clears your mind and can speak to something deeper. Meditation with the wind. Unfortunately, the overwhelming majority of books on kites are written for children. This one, however, is written for those a little older whose spirit never quite caught up with their physical age.
If you don't know where to start your journey with kites, then Kites For The Semi-Grownup is the perfect place to start.
From the ease of single-line, the power of dual-line stunt kites, or even the complexities of quad-lines, this book is the perfect place to start your journey into the wind. Covering the history, types, how to fly them, and even how to build them, this is not a book full of pretty pictures leaving you wanting more.
Starting with the very basics you will learn to build and fly single-line diamond, box, sode dako, and delta kites as well as two versions of an amazing dual-line stunt kite. You will use easily obtainable parts as well as custom 3D printed and even professional parts used by the best kite manufacturers in the business.
Already own books that show you how to build kites and never built one because they never show you all the steps? Not here! Each kite is built from scratch, slowly, with plenty of diagrams and pictures to make sure you can build every single kite in the book. Making them can be almost as much fun as flying them!
There has never been a better time to get into kites so stop reading the description, grab your copy of Kites For The Semi-Grownup and start flying today!
