I have no real idea, know there was someone who asked the question a litwhile ago. I am attepting to find out how many kites were sold in Australia over the last 12months. These figures will go towards my business degree assignment due in 2weeks time. Shouldnt leave these things to the last minute. Also how many people are kiteboarding in and the estimated growth.

Please help (guess)

I have never been to a spot where I've seen more than 40 kites at once, so there are only 40 kites in the world.

(Would you believe some of the people I do business with think along these lines?)

maybe the guys on this forum that own shops could help you out with some figures, then you could get an average by looking at how many stores there are.. they might not want us to know how much money they are making off us though!

in the last 12 months ive bought 2, which makes a running global tally of:

40 + 5 + 2 = 4052. which is quite alot less than 50,000

Do little one string kites count?

I've got a couple of those lying around at home..

got a 14 LEI as well... but I didn't buy that new - so i assume it doesn't count.

Mark me on for 3 if the little kites count though :P

Check with customs there has to be an artical number for them and then check to see how any have been imported.
That won't give you the ones that are made here (monkey)
Good luck
