Kite flying festival at the Forster Bicentennial Park
Transcript
00:00I hope you guys watched it and if you have a kite, I bet you're having an awesome time.
00:13This is really burning up the light.
00:16This is really cool.
00:21Let's fly the kite.
00:23Go!
00:30Go!
00:36Finally!
00:48How did your dad go just then?
00:50Really bad.
00:56I'm about to just fly the kite.
01:01So, first step is you can't just...
01:05So, see over there?
01:07You can't just let it fly into the tree.
01:09You have to go away from the tree.
01:11So, what you have to do...
01:13You have to see this...
01:15You have to go near the...
01:17You need to go near here where the string is.
01:19And you have to look here.
01:21Then, you hold it down to the floor.
01:24And then you have to get down low.
01:26Then push it up.
01:28You can just run around and fly it everywhere.
01:43He did terrible.
01:46Let's give Henry another try.
01:48Ready?
01:50Ready, steady, go!
01:59Disappointing.
02:01It has to be windy and you need a lot of string.
02:05And if you catch it in the wind and you run with it, it stays up.
02:09Hold it up straight like that. Ready?
02:12One, two, three, go!
02:18First of all, there's a little white tab at the back that you can pull up.
02:25You want to make sure that's all the way up so it widens out.
02:30And also, you want to make sure that all the string is...
02:38Enough string is there so that it can fly up.
02:43But you also don't want to have too much string because otherwise it won't be able to fly or just fall down.
