About
KiteSim is an 3D interactive simulation of a LEI traction kite, the type of kite most often used for kite surfing.You can use this program to learn how to fly a kite, practice making loops, or try out different water launching techniques without worrying about untangling your strings later. The kite is controlled by the mouse, which moves the on-screen control bar and chicken loop. Other features include kite force, wind speed and kite speed indicators and wind speed and line length controls.

Features
steer the kite by moving the control bar with a mouse
adjust the chicken loop to depower the kite
change line length, wind speed and gustiness parameters
modify background scenery and kite design
simulate launching and problems such as crossed lines
monitor kite force and speed

Requirements
Windows 98 or later operating system
Intel Pentium III 400MHz or faster processor
Integrated 3D Graphics or better
64 MB of RAM
at least 5 MB of available hard disk space
