Victor and the Vic’s Fighter Kite

“Kite Country came to be because of my love for kites. I flew my first kites when I was 4 years old, and now, I am almost 80. I still love and fly kites. In 1964 when I came to the US, I noticed there were no kites in the sky. I wondered why not. I remembered how they were so much fun. When I went looking for kites to fly, none were available, so I decided to build one. I wanted it to be as good or better than the ones I flew as a child. Mostly to be ready to fly, durable, and adjustable for everyone’s style. After many, many prototypes, trying to create the perfect kite, I had to settle for a very good compromise and I called it the Vic’s Fighter Kite.”
