The 13th was probably the best Streatham Kite day ever. We had wonderful weather, the wind was good (enough) and we had very large crowds. Sky Symphony put on three great shows, Carl Robertshaw flew some amazing solo routines, the trick flyers were great to watch and Andrew Beattie flew a large Manta, Tiger, Teddy…and Bob Colover flew for the first time in the arena. Read a review of the 2011 Kite Day by Stephen Hodges (winner of the altitude sprint - again!).
There are photos of previous Kite Days in the gallery.
