Описание: KiteTv: World Kite Cup Level Flying — With All the Kite Ads & Memes You Didn’t Know You Needed

This week, KiteTv does exactly what it set out to do from day one: spotlight flyers from around the world in a full half-hour episode with zero sponsored ad but we still have them —just pure kiting, skill, and community nit really .

We kick things off at WSIKF 2025 with Team KiteLife (TKL) flying a powerful six-pack led by John Barresi.

This freestyle session features John flying the Djinn MV by Kite Forge to Aquarius Apocalyptic.

Clean lines, precision timing, and world-class control set the tone early.

Next, we head to Oklahoma City with our good buddy Bruce “The Sky Pirate”, flying Canvas Kite Designs Frank “aka the Tank” dual-line kite—style, personality, and creativity in motion.


We then debut a new promo for “The Object”, designed by Lam Hoac and Josh Mitcheson.

Built for raw freestyle performance, this high-aspect beast delivers fast rotation, four-axis control, and aggressive feedback. From Axels and Lazy Susans to Cascades, Comètes, and Yo-Yos, this kite thrives under technical, high-energy flying.

Representing Team USA as a future World Kite Cup competitor, Jesse Kapsten out of Massachusetts showcases smooth, controlled indoor flying on a two-line Benson kite—precision and finesse in tight quarters.

We roll back the clock with a vintage performance by Scott Weider at Disney World with Kite Man Productions.

Scott, also representing Team USA and a proud member of Team KiteLife, reminds us how long excellence has been part of the sport.

No KiteTv episode is complete without asking the question:

“How did you discover kiting?”

Mr. Remington stops by Klig’s Kites, where Wendy from Georgia shares her story.

Send us your video or text response and we’ll feature it on KiteTv.

From the archives, we share rare 1969 8mm footage of Suendra Bahadur, courtesy of Rakesh Bahadur and Robert Laurie.

Suendra owned one of the first kite shops in the United States—true kite history.
(Fun fact: aluminum Mylar dragon kites were outlawed in 1975.)

International action continues from Beijing, China, with Zhang Jin Biao practicing with double PanYings inside a sports hall—technical, powerful, and mesmerizing.

We wrap the episode in South Africa with our good friend Wesley Beales flying a stacked set of dual-line kites in Groot Brak River, Western Cape.

Incredible pull, smooth control, and elite pilot skill close the show strong.

That’s a wrap for this week on KiteTv.
