Sky Dancer Kite by Inter Active Kites
Переглядів 1916 місяців тому
I've been lucky enough to acquire a Sky Dancer quad line kite in great condition. Here's a short video of my first flight with it. Some describe them as a hybrid dual/quad kite due to its unusual flight characteristics created by its variable geometry frame.

    Good show! Are you flying the stinga to the pilot with a separate line or is stinga riding the main line from the ground anchor?

    • @kiteland3094
      @kiteland3094 3 місяці тому

      The Stinga was on the main line to the ground anchor and then the PAWITA was connected to the Stinga's pilot point. The other kites then had their own lines but we're connected to the Stinga's main line with carabiniers.

    I've owned one of these since the late '90s. It only flies once or twice a year now as it has become a bit fragile. I would love to find another. I once spent a lovely afternoon with David at his house talking kites. A friendly, delightful, knowledgeable man. Sadly missed.

      All kite gliders missed David! When I bought my Skydancer in 2002, David sent me an email with instructions and instructions and tips and his last words in that email were: “Roland, welcome to the club!” and I am very proud to be a member of this club!

    I am owner of a SKYDANCER-Kite from Dave Davies an I remember the first contact via eMail in 2004 to Dave direktly. Since 18 years I visit the RÖMÖ-Kite-Festival every year in September! Of all my 20 2 and 4 line kites, the Skydancer is the most fun to fly and has long tube sponges in rainbow colors. But even at the largest international kite festival in the world, at RÖMÖ, I am often the only Skydancer owner and flyer; very rarely is there another person present, and that with now 40,000 to 50,000 spectators and visitors! I would like to get to know another Skydanzer owner and pilot and exchange ideas with him - I'm excited to see if anyone gets in touch with me! Greetings from Northern Germany and Roland from Bremen!

    I enjoyed the spectacle and felt the pain of wrong way turbulent wind. Being able to fly at water's edge on grass is something special. No sand in the shoes.

      How did it turn out? I just bought a whale and a dolphin kit from a guy in a kite club that bought them and never put them together. I know how to use a sewing machine but im definitely no pro.

    Excellent video - I am a beginner and I could follow. You kept me calm. I will fly my dolphin this weekend at a kite festival in Newport, Rhode Island. You had the perfect amount of patter and sped up bits. The only bad part is now I want to do more! Thank you.

    Well done on an excellent video guide. I can't think of any suggestions to improve. Your calm and reassuring narration made me feel my first time sewing was not so bad after all. I think if I did another one I would have the confidence now to not overly pin every seam. Your puzzle regarding the throat flaps not matching inside seems to be common on all the kits. I have seen it suggested it allows for turning over and making a final hem but it's not in the instructions and hidden away inside I don't think it matters. I think only Freddy himself maybe able to solve the puzzle. I too dream of a room all my own for working.
