The old venoms were great kites. Although modern kites have progressed a small amount they are not that far away from kite performance 20 years ago. It's always awesome to see some of the old greats still in the air today:thumbup::thumbup::cool:

Nice video. Picture is from early 80s? :D
Great to see one still being used.
