Well Allen, In that case, I'm sure your son will do just fine flying a stunt kite

using a single handle for both lines; he should learn very quickly. I do repeat,

flying a stunt kite using handles in both hands is not the same process and

requires very different learning. In essence, your son has trained both lobes

of his cortex when he learned to fly the kites. He will need to train a single lobe for

both line inputs. With his experience, I suggest that your son get a Prism Micron

and fly on 60' 30 lb Spectra. He'll probably love it. The Micron is extremely fast

and will speed over 65 mph in 18 mph wind. In 16-18 mph wind, the Micron will pull

as hard as an FAI combat ship and will turn faster than a 1/2A Combat model.

I still believe the stunt kite is the best intro to control line areobatics, and it can

survive countless crashes without breaking. Stunt kites can do all aerobatics

except overhead stuff.
