I had two kites as a child and neither flew well, so I gave up. Now my great nieces have this one and it flies well, so I got one, too. Finally, at 63, I have a kite that is easy to fly and a lot of fun to make it do things.
I've flown this kite on very blustery days and it is super responsive. For the money this costs it's a real bargain. I don't think it's a beginners kite to be honest. The larger ones are easier to fly but more expensive. This little kite screams across the sky and it loves doing tricks. So if you get one watch a YouTube tutorial on basic kite techniques. It'll pay dividends. I hope someone from decathalon reads this because if you followed the exact design of this small kite and produced in a 240 + cm size it would be awesome. . (I'm going to buy another today.) Absolutely recommended but persivere with it of you are new to stunt kites.
We got this kite for my stepson to steer him away from the consoles. He grunted at first, but after the first few attempts loved this kite. The instructions are clear and you can feel the solidness of the make. We have had kites in the past that despite following instructions, have buckled under the pressure of strong wind, or just twisted and snapped. This kite is durable and so easy to control :)
We so wanted this to be fantastic but on a windy day on the beach in Scotland we seemed to be the only family who couldn't get our kite to stay in the air (and so of course we're blaming the kite). It just seemed too responsive and apt to loop the loop, which was exciting for about 5 seconds, before crashing to the ground. Might be brilliant in steady wind, perhaps it was just too blustery? But then why was everyone else's kites happily flying away? We'll persevere...
one click design is fantastic
too responsive
Dear H,
Thanks for your message. Sorry that the kite hasn't performed as you wish, it is true that they can be more difficult to control in very windy conditions. This particular kite is designed for winds of up to 40km/hr, anything over that and it starts to be quite hard to control.
If you would like to return or exchange the kite for a slightly larger/more technical model (which are suitable for greater wind speeds), then please don't hesitate to contact your nearest Decathlon store or via the online process.

Is a stunt kite and it wants to spin. With a blustery wind, the kite spins very easily and is then hard to control (unwinding the spin and getting height). Not recommended for smaller children or inexperienced flyers
small, easy to put together and use
very hard to keep the kite in the air
Dear Nav,
Thanks for your message and feedback on the Rclic 120 Kite. The kite is one of the smallest and lightest in our range of acrobatic kites and intended for use by beginners in relatively calm to moderate conditions (windspeed below 40km/hr). I will of course pass your comments on to the product design team in France.
If you aren't happy with the performance of the product please do return it to your nearest store or via the online process for an exchange (perhaps a larger model) or a full refund.
Regards,

This was my first two string kite. It took me about 30 min to learn how to lift it into air and keep there more then 10 sec :). I'm very happy with this kite. It's very durable. Survived a lot of crashes on the sandy beach and in the park (grassed ground). My son (8 years ols) is mastering a skills now. I can recommend this for anyone.
The best kite for first time buyers. Very durable.
The strings could be more durable.
