Dermer Sled Kite: U-Build Kit

This little sled kite flies great!

Made from high-density merchandise bags, the thin, slightly opaque plastic allows for easy tracing of art designs. Simply slide your art pattern under the sail, then trace and color to create your own artwork.

This kite has been used for decades in classrooms, children’s fairs, kite festivals and by recreation specialists who are looking for an inexpensive, easy-to-make and great flying kite!

For a successful workshop and kite building experience we have created a page of Dermer kite tips and suggestions.
