Ty Billings Kites!!!!!

A stash of new kites made by Ty Billings has been uncovered!   
These are old stock kites that had never been unrolled since they were made and they are beautiful!!!!!


There are Dancing Bear Arch Eddy kites; these are able to be flown individually or connect their bowlines together to form an arch.   These are all appliquéd, with Ty's trademark tye-dyed material on the neck of each bear.   There are only a handful of these, so if you want one email to claim one quick!

There are also two of Ty's Yotzu kites.   
He did a lot of research on this design and kept tweaking it until it flew just right.   
These are neat shapes, that are bursting with color.   
Head over to Windswept Kites to find these treasures!

These are only a handful of the newly arrived kites we have on hand.  
Looking for a deal?   
Make sure to check out the Yard Sale too!   Some new items were just added in there.

New kites in time for the holiday!

We just received in a packet of kites from Karl Longbottom. 

These are all individual one-of-a-kind hand dyed kites.
They are great for popping into a suitcase, briefcase, or backpack to carry along your travels, or as a car kite too.
Fantastic flyers these kites will light up the sky everywhere!
 
You have two color schemes to choose from: Hot or Cool.   Both colors look great!
These kites retail for 67$ shipped in the US via Priority Mail 
(if you order soon they might make it to your house for Friday!).
Head over to Windswept Kites to claim one (and some other nice kites too!)

Keep checking the website out for changes and new kites!
Happy holidays to everyone

A Birthday SALE!!!

Sam, the Cardigan Welsh Corgi, has worked in the kite industry as long as we have!!!

(yes that was his lunch box for work)

This Friday, August 14th, Sammy is turning 15 years old!
Yep, an old man corgi!!!

In honor of this birthday we have put a couple of kites on sale.

The last of Ty Billing's creations is on sale for 15% off their original price.
(on one kite that is $30 bucks, and the other kite is is over $100 dollars off!)

These two kites are the last that we have from Ty.
Honestly, they are most likely the last two brand new, unflown of his kites in the world.

So: Sammy the kite dog says "get them while you can!" and if you have a dog friend make sure to give them a pat for Sammy.


Woof woof

Officially Ty Billing's kites are for sale!

We received a box of kites from Ty Billings, of High As A Kite,
a box of brand new test-flown-once beautiful kites!


For those of you who know of Ty and his kites you know the beauty of his kites
and how well they fly.

For those new fliers: you get to see some kites that have not been available in about 10 years!
Fantastic tye dyed skins, basic rokkaku platforms so they fly very very well.

We are extremely proud to bring out these kites-they embody exactly what Windswept Kites is all about: getting those cool kites out to everyone!

Go and check out www.windsweptkites.com for the rare chance
to bring one of Ty's kites into your home!

Hang it on a wall if you wish or get out there and fight in a Rok battle with it;
these kites look beautiful doing either!

Check out the other kite makers offerings, and the Yard Sale as well, because the best kite flying season is coming up soon!
