A blog detailing our collection of Peter Powell kites, and chronicling our flying of these kites. Plus a bit of PP kite history thrown in. Our collection to date stands at 77 kites and can be seen here. I am keen to expand the collection, so if you have an old Peter Powell kite, whether made in the UK or the US, gathering dust and looking for a new home, why not get in touch? Depending on the kite (does it bring something new or different to my collection?), its condition (is it flyable? how much TLC does it need?), and the price you ask (+ shipping if from outside the UK), we may well be able to do a deal.

PPKOG 2022 kite

It has become an annual tradition: a kite produced by the Powell boys, exclusively for members of the Peter Powell Kites Owners Group on Facebook. Such a PPKOG kite was issued for 2019, 2020 and 2021. 

The tradition continues in 2022! There have been big changes recently to the business with the arrival of Luke Young, and one of the changes is that a sail for a Peter Powell kite can now be screen-printed, basically incorporating any design you want. To mark this new dimension to Peter Powell Stunters, it was decided to customise one of the five special xmas kites and so turn that into the 2022 PPKOG kite. 

Here it is, sporting a special multi-coloured tail!



It flies as all Mk III kites do, and the multi-coloured tail adds a bit of pizzazz.

Did you notice the star with '50' at the top of the xmas tree? That's a nudge to 50 years of Peter Powell kites ... Expect a bit more on that soon ...
