Using a hoop reel with your kite
My 1,484th kite video. I'm often asked what reels I use with my hundreds of kites. Here's the answer, but what you use is a question of preference. My reels have come mostly from http://www.pictureprettykites.com/ind... and www.intothewind.com . I always use braided dacron line, mostly from the same sources and from www.emmakites.com . In Europe, https://www.metropolis-drachen.de/en/... is a good source. Anyone wanting to check out all my "How to..." videos on various aspects of kite-flying can now find them all easily on my Playlist at / jimskitesnz
