Marvellous monster

Posted by Jim Nicholls, New Zealand on 16th Sep 2012

This kite is huge, and has a pull to match, so it is not for children! It looks magnificent in the air, and is great for hauling up large items of line laundry. With the sun shining through it, the colours are amazing. Every colour is a separate piece of fabric - none of the pattern is printed. It's not cheap, but the work involved in making it is enormous. I would not try hand-flying mine in high winds, as I think I would be dragged away. But in lighter winds, or with a good anchor, it is great fun and looks fantastic. A wonderful design by Barbara Meyer, and great value as priced here.
