So, tell me . . .

Which of the following do you think would be more fun to watch?



The Shark is a 20' long windsock and requires lifting by another kite:

The 6' Penguin is an acutal kite than can fly under its own power but most times would also be attached to another kite line for stability:

They are both cool. But I went withthe penguin because it is bigger and has a little more going on than the shark.

Plus, it may be fun to see JR struggle for freedom while tied to lines floating in the sky.

Wait a minute, I thought penguins can't fly?

With enough wind, and enough strings connected to the appropriate places, just about anything can be made to fly.

I guess you could call it more of a "Gliding . . . with style".

The shark is cool, but I like that the penguin can fly on it's own.

Plus, the penguin could have an FFR logo sewed on to it.

I voted for the shark because I think it would look more natural in the wind, almost as if it were swimming in the sky. Whereas the penguin would just look like it got carried away with the wind.

Plus I'm afraid of heights. Unless you want penguin vomit raining down on you I'd leave my flippers on the ground! nod.gif

I never claimed to be too bright.

I guess I didn't state my "bigger" statement properly. I should have said the penguin was more full.


Yeah, I know you are full of it. evileye.gif

I agree that a shark would seem like it belonged there and was swimming along.

Do sharks like penguin?

Wouldn't you be a happy 20' air shark if you had a big, fluffy penguin to sky swim after?

I think you need to get up into the air just to clear your head.

Whoops!

I was still leaning towards the 20' shark as my favorite just because, well, he's 20' long!

I missed the pricing. The one I can afford is the same shark but only 10' long.

So, that changes the decision to a 10' shark vs a 6' penguin.

In that case, the penguin might win.

But its a guitar!

I think the shark and penguin question is moot...

I Vote GUITAR!

It just shows you which one is worth something...

I'd also like the 40' crab:

But he's $4,000.

A bit much for my hobby.
