A Pleasant Spring Day in Zagreb, Croatia - KAP Jasa - kite team Slovenia
When Zmajoljupci call, we ride. The summons arrived on Friday: Žuža and Žare, ever faithful disciples of those lying meteorologists, chose to believe the forecast – and by Saturday morning we were already in the car, reasonably well stocked with kites, pointing ourselves towards the Croatian capital. The day turned out splendidly. Spring at her ... Read more

So, you thought we’d forget this? The best kite festivals of the Summer? Forget Indonesia? Yeah, right. Here we go! This story started almost three years ago on a freshly harvested cotton field in Hubbali.

Ahoj, šarkany! Slovakia International Kite Assembly 2025 - KAP Jasa - kite team Slovenia
A long, long time ago there were the Austro-Hungarian, Ottoman, and British Empires. Then a lot of things happened, and now there are Slovakia, Slovenia, Hungary, Romania, Turkey, India, and the United Kingdom — among many other pieces of this long-lost, irrevocably shattered imperial puzzle. Andrea and Ľubica are imperialists at heart*, so they tried ... Read more

Eyes of the Wind: Kite Aerial Photography Exhibition in Dieppe - KAP Jasa - kite team Slovenia
It’s ok to brag, they say, if you have something to brag about. And we do! 🙂 When we were striving to get KAP Jasa – kite team Slovenia recognised as a NGO working in public interest, people who were to approve our status were a bit baffled. What are kites? To which category should ... Read more

Love, Lies, and Legacy: Égenjáró Nemzetközi Sárkányfesztivál - KAP Jasa - kite team Slovenia
It was a rare moment, a perfect alignment that almost never happens. Three wind apps; the illustrious Országos Meteorológiai Szolgálat, Hungarian meteo service; EMFCW and EUMETSAT, and even the Slovenian ARSO, plus all good and bad weather sites across the internets were all saying the exact same thing: Wind is from the south-southeast, 13 km/h. ...

Verano Azul: Festival del Viento, Castelló - KAP Jasa - kite team Slovenia
“¡A lo mejor!”– Javi We were a couple of pints deep in Guadalquivir – well, in a discussion about Guadalquivir, having re-ignited the ancient debate of riverine salinity. It was late (or early); we were kinda loud while Javier was, as a proud sevillano, trying to keep a low profile, since we were closer to ... Read more
