Is the DC Sport 70 good for a beginner?

It is listed for intermediate fliers. A first-time flier will spend time learning to steer two lines before loops and dives come easily.

What wind does it need?

The maker does not publish a wind range. A 70-inch sail like this generally wants a steady breeze, so avoid very light or gusty days while learning.

What comes in the box?

The purple sail, a fiberglass airframe, two stunt kite handles and two 75-foot lines rated at 75 pounds.

How does it compare with a smaller stunt kite?

The larger sail pulls harder and turns more slowly than a small beginner kite, which suits intermediate fliers but makes light-wind flying harder.

Can one person fly it?

Yes. Dual control means one person holds both handles and steers with each hand; it is not a two-person kite.

Our take on the Windnsun DC Sport 70" Dual Control Stunt Kite

The Windnsun DC Sport 70 is a dual-line stunt kite with a 70-inch wingspan, a purple nylon sail and a fiberglass airframe. Two handles and two 75-foot, 75-pound lines come in the box, so it flies out of the bag without extra gear. It is aimed at intermediate fliers: the wide sail and dual control let you pull loops and dives once you have some handle time, but it is not a first kite for a child. Against smaller beginner stunt kites it trades easy handling for more pull and sharper turns, and against high-end competition kites it gives up precision and speed.
