Pipa Carioca
The shape of the kite is based on the traditional Brazilian fighter kites (in Portuguese: pipa maranhao.) This kite was the one that impressed the judges for its restless flying style.The design of the rip-stock nylon is a diagonal scale proportion of black and silver. The sun at the center was an addition designed by Amalia, my 7 year old daughter.The materials are all recycled: the rip-stock nylon is from a used motorcycle cover and the spine was shaved from a bamboo pole that I got from a garden.
