Hi has any one made a Rok bigger than 2 metres?
If so how big and what sparing did you use?
I've been asked to make a 'BIG KITE' for a charity that I am involved with and wondered about going bigger than 'Hope' which was 2 metres.

Mike Jones (who made my dopero) makes an 8 ft. Rok. He spars it in carbon but it is for light winds only. I would question making a large rok for inexperienced flyers.
Get a different perspective - try KAP

I am with Gareth on the size, are they to fly it or will you be in charge?. you could always use Bamboo canes.
