The larger fighter kites are called Rokokau kits .The Chineeze would have 
several members on each team to see who could pull the other teams kite down 
first..

  I have a book called The Kite Runner. I think it was set in Iran or there 
abouts. Every Spring they have kite wars. (true story) They would soak their 
string in glue then run it through ground glass.  Then when all the kites are 
flying they dive at each other trying to cross strings. The glass will cut the 
opponent's strings and their kites would sail away. The last kite flying wins. 
It's like the superbowl to them. Shops close and everybody sits on their roofs 
to watch. It's an all day event. 
  Just a bit of trivia.

Hey  Will       Do you know how tough it is to make a kite out of flat rocks  & 
rabbit guts ??    Mostly they flew off cliffs ( down )     We made ours also 
out of Buddies Gro. sacks . In the days before plastic .   We also put single 
edge razor blades on the corners , at the end of the bridle .Kite wars      
good clean fun      terry

What is a Zilker?  Is it like a Kilt?

a tarp? wow that is one heavy duty kite.  Did you ever get into kite wars?  
When I was a kid we'd make kites with really sharp noses on them and rip the 
other kites out of the sky!  Then the teachers told us not to do it any more.  
Damn adult authority figures!

OK, I’m looking for the front window cover that has eyes on it like the Bus 
from the movie CARS. Any ideas where to get one?
