Thanks Ken. If he tried those kites here in Newfoundland he'd end up in Australia with all our wind. Man if I tried that no one would get the lines untangled :(

Thanks again for the link. That guy got talent that's for sure :thumbsup:

Amazing control of kites. We have a kite show near our home in June every year. Great show. They have a similar show with a person on each kite. It amazes me how a person can control one kite let alone several kites.

Ha. Isn't this ironic. I'm in Canada and its blocked from viewing in my country. :confused2:

Paul, I don't understand, why would it be blocked?

It is, based on country. I'm a few thousand KM away from Paul and get the same thing. It's a YouTube thing, the content provider is able to block access to different regions. Usually, when content is blocked in Canada, it's because it's from an American network and there's a Canadian network that bought the rights to the content in Canada. Why you'd block a video of a kite seems a little strange. For me, the surest way to ensure I see something is to try and block me from it. There's always another way to find it.

Thank you very much for posting. I watched it twice before I posted. Not only "Simply Amazing", but "SPECTACULAR".
