Hi everyone!
I've been flying kites for about twenty years now. I married into a kite family, and am happier for it. My first stunt kite was a blue plastic Trlby, that I still have to this day. Unfortunately, that's the problem. All of my Trlby's are getting long in the tooth, and as I'm sure some are aware, almost impossible to replace.
I started a project last year to replace all of my sails with ripstop, and so far I have two complete. I'm working on three new ones this year (that I'll have to post plans for).
Ask that to say my question is about tails. The Trlby tails are all tubes, and tubes in that size are apparently hard to come by, and expensive in ripstop. Is there any opinion on if the regular dynakite streamer tails will affect performance?
