What will these sleds be judged on, apart from re-cyclability? Durability, angle of flight, height, flight duration? That's if we can get one to stay together long enough to get it off the ground.

From your final comment Arthur, durability must feature, and I like to see a sled kite fly at a reasonable angle, so this will be a factor. Height? Probably not SO important, and flight duration goes with durability... At the end of the day, it will be my decision, just do your best!

"This can ONLY be a single serving packet, no large to-share packets, or the outer bag of a multi-pack. It can be cut to shape."
If someone can prove they can eat all of one of the large packets in one go on the day then surely that should be allowed?

You can try it if you like, but I think you will find that rules 1, 9 and 10 apply...  |
