A gian stack of Flexifoil Kites being flown by one man during the Blackheath International Kite Festival 2009. Flexifoil International is a designer and manufacturer of kite products. Started in 1972 by Ray Merry and Andrew Jones in Cambridgeshire, England, Flexifoil has become known for its power kiting products. Flexifoil owes its early success to its original Stacker 6 kite, which became the first commercially-sold recreational power kite.[citation needed] This kite could be attached to other Stackers to make a more powerful kite and it is still available today. Other successful kites have included the Stranger trick kite and the Blade series. A factor in Flexifoil's success has been the growing popularity of kitesurfing[citation needed] and they manufacture boards and LEI kites such as the Neutron, Ion Four and the HadlowPro for the sport.
