Kite Fighting (Patang Bazi)

Each flyer launches their own kite and lets out string until it catches a steady wind and climbs.

Maneuver your kite by pulling and releasing string, angling it to fly higher, dive, or drift sideways.

To challenge another flyer, cross your string over or under theirs and saw it back and forth to try to cut their line.

A flyer whose string is cut loses their kite, which drifts free for spectators to chase and claim.

The last flyer with an intact kite still airborne wins the round.

Traditional matches use line coated for cutting, which can injure hands and bystanders; casual play is safer with plain string and a simple stay-aloft-longest contest instead.
