      What is Red Bull Kite Fight?

      Red Bull Kite Fight is a competition to find the most talented kite fliers in India. The first edition of Red Bull Kite Fight took place in Ahmedabad in 2015 where the local boy Ankur Mehta took the top honours.

      Is it an exhibition?

      No. Like we said, it’s a COMPETITION. How further your kite flies is inconsequential; what matters is that you cut others’ kites and survive till the end.

      Where and when is it happening?

      The city qualifiers will take place on the following dates:

      Surat: January 9, 2016,

      Ahmedabad and Vadodara: January 10, 2016.

      The Final will be take place in Ahmedabad on January 13, 2016.

      When should I reach the venue?

      Reporting time at the venue is 9:30 AM. In case of any issues reaching the venue, contact Mr. Christopher Croning (+91-9819577278) or Mr. Shivanand Lalwani (+91-9833749180) .

      How many kites do I get?

      Five. Survive the day!

      What happens if someone who’s not a participant of Red Bull Kite Fight, cuts my kite?

      Doesn’t matter if it’s a participant or a non-participant; once you’re kite is cut, it’s counted as gone. You don’t get an additional kite.

      Can I play it safe and not cut anyone’s kite and just look to be defensive?

      This is Kite Fight, not a Test Match. If anyone is found to be playing it safe and not being competitive, he stands the risk of either being disqualified or his kite being cut by the Red Bull Experts.

      How dangerous can my ‘maanja’ be?

      It can be as dangerous as you want it to be as long as you can hold it in your hand.

      Can I use Chinese ‘maanja’?

      No, only Indian maanja is allowed.

      Can I use my own kites?

      No. To keep everyone at the same level, all the kites needs to be standard; hence, only Red Bull Kite Fight branded kites, provided by the organizers at the venue, are allowed.

      What happens to the top three winners of each city?

      The top three winners of each city will proceed to the final round on January 13.

      What will the winner get?

      Three things:

      1. Title of Red Bull Kite Fight Champion 2016
      2. Red Bull Experience
      3. Bragging Rights

  8. Anonymous
