in Jakarta, it's kite season now. everyone makes a kite. at PONDOK JAGUNG near from Jakarta kite fever also reaches its peak. every parent who has children makes his kites. kites here are called KOANGAN kites. a big kite. with a long tail. This is also a traditional kite around Jakarta
This kite must be balanced and strong to challenge the afternoon breeze. Mr. Ujang and Dany just finished their kites.
it's time to test it. this afternoon the wind blew about 15 knots. very tight. indeed this afternoon the rain clouds hung quite low.
yup ... the kite is flying straight into the air. very strong winds above. the thread stretches without slack.
initially their kites flew pretty good. before long the wind got stronger, the kite began to tilt to the right. It's hard to control it ... Pak Ujang, this has to be set up again. the kite isn't balanced yet. maybe the frame isn't perfect or there is too much glue on the right side ... the item needs to be improved first.
