Episode 35 of Open Source Trickkites features the new sportkite design from Birger Garbe of Ulzburger Kites: Break. The Break is a scaled down version (218 cm width) of the very popular Escape. The framing is a mix of Skyshark and pultruded carbon. 5pt and 6mm for the standard version. The Break is bit more radical in tricks compared to it's bigger brother while retaining the wide wind range. Thanks a lot once again Birger for releasing the plans and providing a kite (in…

Thanks a lot once again Birger for releasing the plans and providing a kite (in TEAL!!!) to test and enjoy! This one should be on your building list for sure. This video was shot at Valkenisse beach near Zoutelande, Zeeland in a nice sea breeze.

Bauplan: [Break] - ein neuer Trickdrachen

Nachdem es zwei Jahre her ist, dass ich den Escape-Bauplan vorgestellt habe, ist es nun wieder an der Zeit einen neuen Bauplan vorzustellen, den Break. Den Namen hat er bekommen, nachdem ich eine Baupause eingelegt und ein ganzes Jahr lang keinen Kite gebaut hatte.

drachenforum.net/wcf/attachment/63810/

Der Kite ist nicht wirklich gänzlich neu, es ist im Wesentlichen eine verkleinerte Version des Escape mit einem einfachen Gestänge, in diesem Fall 6mm gezogenes Carbon in den Leitkanten und 5PT in…

Super!!! Very nice flying.

Zitat von tight

Thank you. Would the 60d then also go if you cut it yourself? Still have black 60d here

Otherwise I have to go shopping again

Yes you can use it. Hotcutting is best to prevent fraying.

Finally some nice enough wind and weather to hit the "polder" meadows. Le Neutron Ultralight sportkite was designed by Christian Derefat. This sail was made by Christian and framed (3pt/5mm structil) and bridled (3 point) by Fred Blok. Thanks to Wilfred Legebeke for the kite! An older open source model but still very capable and a lot of fun to fly.

You can find the original Le Neutron plans here:

OSTK Episode 22 featuring Le Neutron UL:

You can find Spinnaker strip here: 25mm for TE and 50mm LE

Join the fun! Show some moves. Win a kite (awarded randomly across all entrants). Let's try to have a record breaking amount of entries.

Colors remind me of a typical Dutch marschmallow style candy called "Spekkies".

My recent trip to Terschelling was very windy. The forecast mentioned a little dip in the wind for the early morning of January 2nd. Here's a little edit of that morning featuring the 90Three Standard sportkite at Paal 6.

Build your own 90Three using these plans:

It has been a while since the last kite session. Winter has come and so it's thermo underwear, beanies and gloves instead of t-shirts and shorts. Brought the Kitehouse Sharp Ultralight sportkite to the frozen meadows of Boezempolder. The ice slides had to be done off course. So much fun. Thanks again Sascha Treder for this wonderful design. Still love it a lot. Enjoy!

Meine beiden (STD+UL) auch net...

Aber die beiden Voegel machen echt Spass!!!!

PS: Kanst die die blaue Raute in Deinem Profilbild entfernen oder z. B. gegen einen Adler oder so austauschen

Forza SGE!!!

Added this one to the builds page as well! Funny, one would expect the kite with lighter colors to be the UL. White LE dacron is also quite brave with the black volcanic sandy beaches there in Hawaii!

Er ist zwar nicht perfekt, aber an 35m Leinen sieht man das ja nicht

Aloha karel_oh,

thank you so much for putting my second kite (after my return STD) on your great web page https://kareloh.com/ !!! I really love it and it helps me a lot to build my kites. Thank you for sharing.

BTW its an Escape UL, sorry I forgot, because I am so excited to fly my 2 new kites (Escape UL+STD), that I always forget/have no time to take pics.... Standard pics follow too.

To your question: The thick black stripe is sewed to the back and the thin black strip is sewed to the front.

Why are you asking? (I am a very inexperienced kite builder and flyer and I would like to learn)

Take care,

Alex

Yes, what nurgus said.

I'll change the caption

Zitat von AxelAlex

Danke lieber Birger!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cool! It has a certain '90s vibe to it. Added it to the builds page:

Escape builds – KARELOH.COM

Quick question: Did you sew the black stripes to the back of the sail?

Zitat von zhengyu

The freshly baked kite is only 40cm. What should we call it?

Nice! Good color too!

Krijn Did the math and it should be called 7Teen!

I fly my 100Sixteen STD mostly on 35-40 meter 25/40dan.

Great stuff birger, should be a fun one!

Nice one!

Nice one! I love the 100Sixteen. I'll put the pic on the builds page.
