We are the first
team of Stunt Kites of Argentina, founded on January 2000. During four years we were the only organized team of our
country. Fortunately there are new teams being born now in
Buenos Aires and Rosario city.
We have created this page to help to diffuse this sport in Argentina and to be
known in the entire world.
We fly in the Paseo de la Costa, Aristóbulo del Valle Street and the coast of the Río de la
Plata river, Vicente López, Province of Buenos Aires, Argentina. Our trainings are
usually on Saturday, 2 to 6 pm, but we meet also during the week.
The team is compound of:
The Competition Team: oriented to demonstrations and competition.
The Team Tropita: two children, 10 y 12 years old, making their first steps in team
flight as a pair.
Our intentions are to promote this flight modality, to achieve quantity
increasing of pilots, teams and flight places, so to be able to have
competitions, to learn and get to participate in international competitions
organized by WSKC, the association that manages this sport.

Championship, Berck sur Mer,

HEART AND REASON OF BEING OF THIS SITE
Since we seek to
promote this activity, we want to easy the way to find all that there is in
Internet referred to team kiteflying with two lines Stunt Kites. Even more: since
most of the notes are written in English language and that in Latin America and
especially in Argentina, not everyone read English, we will translate all notes
possible, beginning with those that we consider more important to read for those
just beginning.
You will find a
schedule with:
Lots of links to technical notes classified by topic, all related with this
sport: basic information, books, videos, bridles, brakes, knots, lines,
materials, kite tests, planes, design, rules, routines, choreography, judging,
software, basic tricks and miscellaneous themes.
