Remember that Spiderman kite you had as a kid? Remember how that gust of wind tore it from your fingers and sent it spiralling off into the ether? Sorry, we had to bring that up. In any case, kites have moved on. No longer are they the exclusive preserve of the pre-pubescent.

Now fully-grown men can get in on the kite-flying act without fear of appearing a little, erm, odd. Symphony kites come in a variety of sizes, from 1.2 metres, right up to 3.3 metres, meaning you can use them for buggying, landboarding and straightforward recreational use.

All kites come with all the lines you'll need are ready to fly straight out of the box. And you can fold them up and pop them in your pocket, ready for some impromptu kite-flying action, should you find yourself in the midst of a gale force wind. Perfect. Kite flying is for kids, is it? We don't think so…
