International SprintKite News, treno di aquiloni

The International SprintKite News is becoming more and more popular for stunt kites lovers. Stunt kites and all sort of traction kites swarm in the sky. It is also a good opportunity to spend a wonderful weekend on the wide beaches that have been expressly turned into a flight area for stunt kites. The event, part of the schedule of Cervia Volante Club, is meant to gather and confront all the followers of this peculiar sport, which has been growing and growing over the past years.

The event is dedicated to Kite-Surfing (the kite-flier ploughs the waves on a surfboard pulled by a kite), Kite-Jumping (the long jumper hangs on a kite) and Buggyng (a sort of trike pulled by one or more kites). The athletes of these sports are required to know the conditions of the wind and be well aware of their physical strength, since the kite, given its big size, has a very big pulling power.

The event commemorates the tradition of the handmade kite, loved by all children, but also displays the applications that such a flying dream can offer thanks to the development and use of technological materials and engineering. Each year Italian and foreign kite fliers long for this event, a big, amazing, non-competitive, open-air exhibition.
