Yeah, It's more of a "Track" than "Trick". But I'm more of a ballet & tails flyer than a tricker. Last time I tried to learn slack line tricks at the beach, I forgot to check the field behind me. I tripped backwards over a stump stuck out of the sand, rammed my sacrum into my L5 vertebrae and had to have a laminectomy. Kinda put me off slack line tricks... 😁 -
Have a Trick and Track but by the colour scheme may be a different version. Has a large presence in the sky, and is very precise. I would go so far as to say more of a precision kite with trick capability than flat out trick kite. Nice solid steady flier that cuts sharp corners but is not afraid to pop an axel. Not really intended for rollup type moves, however. Like mine. . -
I'm not familiar with festivals outside of Washington & Oregon, but the Teddy Bear Drop is a mainstay out here. I'll see if I can find out what the dropping mechanism is. check out the Washington State International Kite Festival page at SATURDAY - World Kite Museum (kitefestival.com) for the schedule with the Teddy Bear Drop listed. There's even a picture of one of the bears parachuting down...

Yes, your analogy is good. On kiting the anchor is YOU, line must to stronger than the fish (read KITE) pull. Small kites no need more than 50-100 lbs line but at bigger dimensions bigger line. you will be surprise to find that they are lifter kites with require 1200-2000 Lbs line. A 7 fits delta kite witch is identical shape and construction like a 12 inch one need 200-300 LBS on front of 50 so...bigger pull stronger line
