American Kitefliers Association

It is extremely rare that a Cody is flown with any sort of tail, but I am far from an expert. You may want to contact Rick White of the Seattle area. Rick runs the Cody mass ascension each year at WSKIF, Long Beach WA.
You can find his email contact in the club house, or drop me a note at bfmeyer at comcast.net.
Another expert is Rick Brown. He is known for building Cody kites.
One of those guys can help you track down a perfect kite.

Barbara, thank you for the advice and names. With your credentials, I think I' ve got my answer.Thank you for the reply.

Captain:  I have been flying a 6' Extended Wing Cody, custom made by Jeff Howard, for at least 15 years at multiple kite events every year.  Lots of air time.  Favorite kite out of hundreds.  Personal plea--don't mess it up with tails, streamers, etc.; it's just beautiful in flight by itself.  It would be like adding Christmas tinsel to a floral arrangement.  If you must embellish, use line laundry, not the kite itself.  I hope you get one soon.

Richard, thanks for the tip. I wish I could find a Cody maker. It looks like its down to Treczocs cody from HQ or one of GKite's offerings.

Didakites makes a Cody30 (7.8' wingspand) kite for $136 that was with delivery from germany.
I had to talk to them to get a alternate and cheaper ($36) way of delivering the kite to new york which would have cost me over $70 if I had let them delivered thru there current courier.
I made a video of its first flight and I actually did a KAP session with the kite. This Cody is made very well and is quick to setup I highly reccomend this kite.

Can you push that kite flight url?
