Yes, it's a light kite.

I bought 2 of these to fly a kite with an 8 and 11 year old who has never done this before. As advertised, they were easy to assemble and the little carry handle bag feels nice. In light winds both launched easily and one of them flew and held at the end of the string with no problems, the other was a bit more unstable and tended to dive hard, a balance issue I'll fix next time with a little extra weight on the opposite side. Caught a tree twice and had this very light kite lifted by the wind, entering the lake was a more difficult retrieve but it took off immediately despite being wet. Overall this is a fun kite for beginners, both have easily outperformed other similar beginner kites flown by people nearby. People watching asked where to buy, so that's a good sign. Adding spares and snap-on fishing swivels was also a good idea. Just downgraded 1 star because there was balance issues on one of the kites and I'm wondering if the side posts should be attached to the center post instead of being loose, it would be a more balanced design. Overall I think this is a very good kite and the kids really enjoyed it.
