Raindrop - Japanese Kites

Raindrop Kites

This site is now only for information and inspiration - as of 2019 I no longer make any kites to order (or at all), and what I have left, if anything, will be HERE with relevant Paypal buttons. Thanks for reading, and I hope you will go on kite-flying for a long time, but I'm done with this now...

	Suruga kites like steady light winds and an experienced flier
		Edos are the ultimate in Japanese show-off kites
		Rokkakkus are the most popular Japanese kites in the West. See this page for more details...
	Sodé kites need steady winds, they are spectacular fliers, but not for beginners.
		Fugu Japanese style, in a tailed kite.
	Tsugaru. Shaped like an Edo, with much simpler bridles and a looped tail. Easy to fly.
		Yakko ("Footman") kite.
