Perth is the world's fourth windiest capital city. That should make kites our ultimate family pursuit. Nipper Extreme is Australia's highest selling dual line kite. It's made by a little Tasmanian company called 'Ground Zero '.
Beyond WA, different cultures use kites in different ways. In Korea, newborn babies have kites released for them. In India, 100,000 people gather at the Makar Sankranti Festival to try to knock each other's kites from the sky.
Back here, the Nipper Extreme is right for everything - if you fly for peace, it soars in silence ; if you aim for speccy tricks, it's ultra maneuverable and works from a beginner's 6kph wind right up to the strongest sea breeze. Nipper's also nearly indestructible.
