The old venoms were great kites. Although modern kites have progressed a small amount they are not that far away from kite performance 20 years ago.
It's always awesome to see some of the old greats still in the air today

Those pillows were supernatural. I used to KiteCat with a 16m in 30knts.
Nice video. Picture is from early 80s? 
Great to see one still being used.
