Double Stranger!

Over the years, our quiver of kites has come to include a small number of Flexifoil deltas to fly together. So we have a pair of Psychos, which are a real hoot to fly together when the wind picks up.



We have three Scorpions, two of which are stacked together. Flying the stack and the singleton together is fun and opens up new possibilities.



Then we have a pair of Stranger Level 7s. Anyone having flown a L7 will be well aware how much of a challenge it is to fly a pair of these mad kites together, but flying them together we did!

But what has so far been missing from the quiver is a pair of Flexifoil Strangers. Up until now, that is. We got our hands on a Stranger recently, due to a dear friend passing away, and his entire kite collection being given to us. That collection included a Stranger. And soon after, I was offered the chance of buying another collection of sport kites (also due to someone passing away) for a price I couldn't say no to; that collection also included a Stranger.

So off to our flying field we went to fly the two!


They didn't need any bridle tweaking to fly together well-matched. Definitely not designed as team kites, but we had fun flying them together!
