This was a very spectacular event, but it's sad to see that almost everything on display was a "non-kite" consisting of a bag of air that needed help from a largely-unseen lifter kite to get aloft. In addition, there were lots more "bags of air" in ground displays. Apart from the lifters, there was scarcely a real kite to be seen, and unfortunately this is becoming the norm for today's festivals. I guess it's what people want to see, but it's not kite-flying! Line laundry has its place, but to see it take over completely is very sad.
If only I spoke German. 😃 Always appreciate these videos.
We will start producing English videos again.
As by now - how about English sub-titles?
@@KiteBuilders that would be great!
Endlich mal wieder Drachen.
Wird auch wieder Drachen-pur werden ;-) Versprochen!
Die Videos werden in zwei Kanäle getrennt werden.....
@@KiteBuilders Gute Idee. Schön zu sehen, daß das "normale" Leben wieder erwacht.
