The record altitude for a single kite was set on August 12, 2000 by Richard Synergy.The record altitude for a single kite was set on August 12, 2000 by Richard Synergy in Kincardine, Ontario. His kite achieved an altitude of 14,509 feet (that's nearly 3 miles high) based on the onboard altimeters!

A complete report of this astounding feat can be found at the Toronto Kite Fliers website.   Although there are doubts, the highest unofficial "classic" kite altitude record is said to be 31,955 feet by a train of 8 kites over Lindenburg, Germany, on August 1, 1919. It is still on Germany's record books to this day!

Whether you're a child or a child at heart, Edmund Scientific has a unique selection of Kites when you're looking for the extraordinary!
