It seems pretty boring if I'm being honest. I'd like to try it just to see what the deal is, but I don't even know where you'd buy a kite these days, let alone rent one. Tell me that flying a kite sucks so I don't have to feel like I missed out on something.
You can get a simple diamond kite for under $20 but its harder find a place carrying them then it is to buy them. All things considered its something nice to try once even if its just once. If you want to do 'get into' flying kites either be near a good place to fly them or get into making kites.
