And then Maurizio asked if he could join in...

It would be good to put a date on this collaboration! It may have been 4th May, 10:59am.

The details of the photographer have been requested. (There is also a short video, source unknown)

Scott Skinner with Jørgen Møller Hansen 1988 Flare and 1991 Rokkaku 1st May

Scott Skinner had kindly donated three kites to the collection, two of which he had owned for many years, the Flare 1988 and the 3m Rokkaku from 1991. He had sent them to London ahead of Cervia for re-framing with the intent to fly them with the team at Cervia.

The third kite was the 1992 Parafoil which Scott had purchased after it was 'found' via the internet.

The Rokkaku was the fourth one from the set of five to arrive in the collection. Scott came to fly both kites on Thursday 1st May. The light wind conditions meant that the Parafoil would not have been viable. That will await another 'meeting'.

The fifth 3m rokkaku kite was donated by Rudy Schwenger of Fridolin's in Hannover and arrived in Cervia at the beginning of the event.
