Looking for Graphic's Idea


Seeing as how the PKF is looking for a new logo... I'm looking for an idea to put on a kite. If anyone feels like drawing on a blank kite template... here it is:



Here's what the other two of this style of kite have looked like... I'm thinking of a "Smiley Jr" but have another week or two before I start to layout the graphics. This kite will be a 5 meter.

A 6.5 Meter


This one's an 8m




What do you do with your foils?

Charger 8, 12, 19
Scorpion 10, 16
And other foils...

Flexifoil Bug, CrazyFly board, MBS atb

I have been thinking about this also. But this is going to represent. So I think it needs to be original Not a copy of something they already have. It needs to be crafty and have a universal foundation. Smiley jr. is a good idea But I don't think it will fly with pkf for a logo. How about PKF on the kite? Or different flags from all over the world on a kite. I am no artist but I do have lots of ideas if that will help. Maybe instead of one picture try three one on each side and in the middle. One static flying kite one on water flying kite and one in a buggy. Stuff like that is that too much. Whatever it is going to be it will be alot of work.Something to simple won't go with the times.Imo. I could be wrong just trying to help.:saint:

Look over at the Pansh forum, they had a competition recently, PM some people and ask if you can use their designs. I have some that turned out well.

Good luck!

Very nice. With that many stripes it would look like a blurr in the air. There is another idea. A visuial change through flight.

Thanks for all the ideas.

A smiley face on each end, with the word Kites surrounded by a heart with an expanding heart in the pattern SilverEagle posted. Just add an extra color on each layer... Not sure that describes what I'm thinking... but would be colorful and family friendly for the beach.

Taping the rib templates this week. Then it will be time to decide on a pattern and see if I have the colors I need.

It takes a couple months or so to complete a project like this...

Here's the three meter I just completed.



And yes.. these kites are meant to be used!
