When choosing a tail for your kite, choose one that is made of lightweight materials.
Parafoil kites usually contain tunnel-like passage ways for wind to pass through.
You can also do maneuvers and tricks, like loops, with dual line kites.
You can also look at the tops of trees, bushes, and the leaves to see how fast the wind is blowing; for example, when the wind is able to move leaves off of the ground, the flying conditions are ideal.
Remember that the more space you have, the more line you can let out and the higher your kite will fly.
If your kite starts to spin, then the line is too taut. You will need to give it some slack by letting out the line.
Alternatively, have a friend hold the kite up in the air for you.
If a friend is holding up the kite, have them toss it up in the air once you have walked about 30 to 50 feet backward.
Make sure the line is taut with a little give as you bring the kite to the ground.
