Next time someone tells you to “Go fly a kite”, perhaps you can challenge them to a kite duel! Kite fighting was a time-honoured pastime long before the existence of TV, the PC and the Playstation – and while the goal was simple, it required a lot of skill to cut your opponent’s string. YG shares the finer points in kite fighting tactics.

basically, there are only two tactics involved in kite fighting – pull and release. the pull method is normally employed when you manage to catch your opponent unawares. you sort of let your kite drift aimlessly and nonchalantly, and without warning, you suddenly change tack and strike. you make a swoop and then you pull (tarek) back furiously until your glass string makes contact and (hopefully) cuts your opponent’s.
