Launching the Manta Ray (Giant Kite) - GoPro

A group from Canada? (I'll add their info if someone knows who exactly they were!) launching a giant Manta Ray kite at the 2012 Milwaukee Kite Festival.
Filmed on a GoPro HD Hero2. Image stabilized with After Effects, because I'm terrible at holding the camera still while moving/walking.

Amazing! One of the best videos on KZbin, the music fits perfectly. It looks like all walks of life enjoy working together…

Wow! So happy to see that! I'm the girl in the video launching the kite! I'll be there this weekend for this year's Mots international kite festival :-)

Is this the midi or maxi version?

[@JulieMailhot]

It's the maxi... 30 meters (100 feet) long

Awesome! I'm glad you found this video! I'll be coming back out again this year to take more pictures and video, so if I see you again, I'll try to say hi!

Hey Brian, didn't see anyone give you the name of the flight master or other info but thats a patchwork Maxi ray from Peter Lynn kites NZ and the flight master was Yves LeForest and Canadian crew (sorry I don't know their names)

hi

[@SitocawithSorento]

is this a maxi ray?

[@BHarrisDesign]

I believe it's a patchwork ray from PL Ltd, but I'm not 100% sure.

I miss rhode island so much. My parents use to take me here or crescent park almost every weekend. Now I'm stuck in hell. Also known as Phoenix.

This was in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, not Rhode Island, sorry!
