We've seen all kinds of tricks used to attach laundry to a flying line. Most involve knots which cause abrasion and weaken line strength. Our approach is a lot more simple.

We wrap small carabiners into the main flying line. Normally, three twists work just fine. When the line is slack, you can slide the"biner"anywhere you want. But when the kite goes up and tension builds on the line, the"biner"is locked in place.

It's quick, easy, and doesn't reduce line strength.

Transition Tails:

These colorful flat tails have long been a favorite kiting accessory. You can hang them on your line or attach them to the kite. For more fun, hook them on a long pole and whirl them around.

Transition Tails

We call them Transition Tails because the color emphasis changes across the length of the tail. It makes a "transition". Get it??

Each contains 60 pieces of durable ripstop nylon stitched together. There is a swivel on one end and a loop on the other so you can easily attach them to your kite or connect several together.

  • $13 for the 24 foot
  • $27 for the 48 foot
  • $47 for 96 foot
  • Transition Tails

    We stock red, orange, yellow, green, blue or purple, each with a black accent and white divider. We also carry a red, white, blue, and a striking one in purple and cyan with black.

    Make a personal transition! And with GKPI, you can always request custom color combinations.

    Lightweight Flag:

    Large flags are hard to find and harder to afford. We checked online and found prices for a flag, 15 x 25 feet, ranging from $450 to $600. The problem is that they all are made from heavy nylon or canvas and can't be lifted by a kite.

    GKPI has developed an all-ripstop flag for kite applications. The stripes and stars are sewn -- not screen printed. And the entire package weighs in at just four pounds. It is a BIG flag for $400.

    Looking for something really big?? We now have a 30 by 50 flag, 1500 square feet. Each is made to order for $1500. Huge! Click here for a short video.

    Streamer Flags:

    Looking for maximum impact for minimum money? A set of Streamer Flags are the answer.

    Our lightweight streamer sets are as dramatic as anything in the sky. You get six 75 foot pennants in either a rainbow combination or custom colors. The fabric shimmers and floats in the lighest breeze, but takes a beating when the wind rises.

    Custom Streamer Flags shown with Pyro Delta

    The flags are attached to a nylon tether that can be connected to your kite or flying line. (We don't recommend you actually fly from the tether.) You can also connect two or more flag sets together and create a wall of color in the sky.

    We offer the 75 foot long Streamer Flag Set for $159 and the 35 foot version for $99. Custom orders take about two weeks. We also make Single Streamers.

    Please Note: Special care is required when flying large and heavy pulling kites or ground devices.

    Such care includes but is not limited to the following:

    • Be sure your flying area is clear of people and obstructions.
    • Be sure you are properly anchored.
    • Be sure your flying line is sufficient for the load it is carrying.
    • Be sure you have the ability to retreive your kite after it is launched.

    Large kites can be dangerous: When you fly them, you accept responsibility for any accidents that may result. GKPI assumes no liability for injury or damage.
