Abstract: A kite comprising at least two bags into which the wind is blowing through air openings in the front end of the bags, and which are joined to each other by a horizontal seam. The shroud line is attached directly to the seam or to a keel which is attached to said longitudinal seam in the middle of the kite. The air openings are diminished by pleats or the like along the edges of the openings. The openings can be closed after the filling with air or gas in which case the kite is flying like a balloon.
