Fly a Kite Like a Pro
A few weeks ago, the team at DNA Vibe opened a message from Colorado Rockies baseball star Daniel Bard.
3 EXPERT TIPS AND TRICKS
“Hey, I have been using your product for a couple of months now, and I’m a big fan,” the all-star pitcher wrote. “I would love to share some units with my Rockies teammates.”
That feedback should have blown DNA Vibe CEO and Founder Perry Kamel away! But he took it in stride with a grin on his face. At this point, he’s used to athletes, chiropractors, grandmothers, and everyone in between going wild over DNA Vibe’s signature product: the Jazz Band.
Flying a kite is a quintessential spring activity, especially for children. But if you struggled to keep your kite in the air as a kid, you’re not alone. Fortunately, you can use a few simple tricks to significantly improve your skills — and help your child become the best kite-flier on the block. FIND THE RIGHT SPOT. Hopefully, it goes without saying that you shouldn’t fly kites near power lines. Flying it near trees and cars is also a bad idea. It’s best to have at least a quarter-mile open space around you for safety and the best wind conditions. Beaches, empty sports fields, and parks with wide open areas are the perfect places to get your kite airborne.
WHAT IS THE JAZZ BAND? The Jazz Band is a cutting-edge, wearable infrared light therapy device that delivers relief through four complementary modes: red, near-infrared, pulsed magnetic, and micro-vibration. These modes work in harmony to reduce inflammation, stiffness, and pain while accelerating recovery. The device is made in the U.S.A. from a rubbery, flexible silicone that makes it incredibly versatile.
HAVE THE WIND AT YOUR BACK. Literally! This position will allow you to watch your kite as it ascends into the air. On a sufficiently windy day, simply holding the kite up by its lowest point and letting go as you unspool your string will be enough to launch it into the sky. When it’s not windy enough for your kite to take flight, try a long-line launch by unspooling about 50 feet of string in a straight line and then taking off running. Remember that kite-flying simply won’t work on some days. If your kite keeps crashing tail first, it may indicate too little wind, while a head-first kite fall may mean too strong a breeze. KEEP IT TIGHT. Launching your kite is usually the trickiest part of the process, but keeping it aloft isn’t always straightforward. To ensure your kite stays in the air, you must retain tension on the string — but not too much. It’s time to reel out some of the line when the kite begins to tug. But too much string
HOW DOES IT WORK? “It’s about a foot long and half a foot wide, and the elliptical geometry is computer-optimized to fit every part of the human body,” Perry explains. “You can literally wrap it around the neck, elbow, hands, feet, shoulder, back — anywhere!”
can weigh down your kite and bring it back to earth. When your line starts to slack, slowly spool it in until it feels taut. Keep your eyes on your kite and your mind on the reel, and you’ll be flying like a pro in no time.
