i have an old kite i was going to use to teach on, but i think it should be de-fly'd.
anybody have any creative uses for one? I like to backpack a lot, something around that would be cool. I have plenty of hammocks, and bags to sort/carry stuff in. any other cool ideas?

just a fun thread for a wednesday.

How about a growler holder for your beer growler (or whatever beverage). . .

I've seem growler holders make of old mtn bike tires.

Wind socks

Kook tie-downs for assout Event site kite users that are assing out. Whether that be launching or landing protocol; attitude or lack there of.

They make a real cool sunshades with some eyelets sewn into the corners. You can buy the boring colorles one but kites can handle wind and look cooler with all the colors. Great conversation piece. Cool shower curtains too:-)!!

I just shed a tear... but now I know what I'm going to do. Same idea but it will be the shade drop on my trailer awning... Thanks Dern

i like the shade idea! the kite material is light enough to toss in my backpack without any weight addition, and i can use my cord that i hang my food with at night to suspend the shade during a break! score!
