What to do with old kites?

[breathe]

I have a bunch of old Naish Boxers (2003), is there anywhere to recycle them, or should I just throw them out?

There was a post some time ago with a link to a website where you sent your old kites and they would sew them into a windproof jacket.

If they still fly well and how some life in them, put them on ebay.

send it to cuba so poor guys need it

And that way we can blame you when beaches get closed!

What is the address to have your kite made into a jacket?

I remember years ago a company in Cowes, UK who made Dacron and Kevlar sails into duffel bags. Really cool!

I heard a rumor that Adventure Sports Miami is going to run a "trade in your junk" credit for new gear again. This isn't confirmed but if it happens, you can get a nice credit for your old C kites towards new kites. Stay tuned.

that would be cool

Throw them away. I just tossed a herd of barely used rhino 4s in the bin. New C kites are so much better than those old dogs I wouldn't wish them on my worst enemy. Support progress, toss out the old and support your favorite kite company.
