Mermaid Kite

Description

The Mermaid kite is a large, beautifully printed diamond shape that really stands out in the sky. It’s high quality design and very high quality screen printed sail makes for a very realistic Mermaid (I can’t believe I just wrote that!). A very playful design that the kids will love. Mermaids fly in a very wide wind range which is exactly what you want for a kids kite…more days when you can play with it. It performs well in fairly light to fresh winds.

Suitable for children aged 4 to 10, the Mermaid kite is very stable in the sky. Kids love to watch it as it wiggles and dances from side to side but it’s also very steady position in the wind. Again, exactly what you want a children’s kite to do. 

The sail is made of rip stop sailcloth and the frame is very 4mm fiberglass. As a result of these really strong materials, you can expect your kite to be around for a long, long time. If you want to see it flying, check out a quick video of it in the sky here.

Kite Type:

Diamonds are Single String kites suited to kids of all ages that fly best in medium winds. All children , even young kids, will find our Diamonds really, really easy to fly. Just hold ’em to the wind and up they will go.

a very traditional design, diamond kites have been around for thousands of years. We’ve updated and modernised them a fair bit with great materials like ripstop nylon sailcloth and strong fibreglass frames but the joy and pleasure for kids flying them is still the same!

Diamond kites need slightly more wind then, say, delta designs but their shape, and the long tails we put on them, make them really stable in the sky as the wind picks up. Is one shape better then the other? No, not really…they are just ‘different’.  Deltas are usually better in light to medium winds while Diamonds are better in medium to fresh winds.

All of our diamond kites are super simple to put together. Just slip 2 sticks (we call them rods or spars) across the back and you’re ready to fly.
