Northwind Kites

We sew kites by hand from ripstop nylon and carbon spars — from simple diamonds for children to quad-line stunt kites. Broken spars, torn sails and tangled lines are repaired in the workshop.

Kites

Single-line

Deltas, diamonds and box kites that fly in light wind and pack into a tube.

Stunt kites

Dual- and quad-line kites balanced for precise turns and stable hovering.

Repairs

New spars, sail patches, bridle tuning and line replacement.

Lessons

Small groups on weekend mornings when the wind allows. Kites and lines are provided for beginners.

How it works
