Well that does suck. I checked the page source and found the link that may help you.

Tell us something.: I've picked up the tinwhistle again after several years, and have recently purchased a Chieftain v5 from Kerry Whistles that I cannot wait to get (why can't we beam stuff yet, come on Captain Kirk, get me my Low D!)

I'm pretty sure that the clip at the kitelife.com site is from a documentary about Ray Bethell called Good Stuff by Matt Nie at the Vancouver Film School. I think you can see a little better how he flies the kites in the VFS clip and he talks during the clip. He talks more about life than flying kites but I thought he had some good things to say. I had never seen kite ballet before.
Yes Ma'am, Ray Bethel lives in Vancouver, and can sometimes be seen in Stanley and Vanier Parks flying his kites.

Thanks for corroborating that. I did quite a bit of detective work to figure it out and I'm glad I reached the right conclusion!

Yeah, you were right.
I believe I've seen him on more than one occasion whilst I lived there. I might have some photos of him stashed somewhere; I'll have to look.

Decades ago my friends and I used to fly single string figher kites. Frim Vic's Fighter Kites. We bought them from the guy who made them in San Diego.
They were awesome. I never got the hang of the dual stringers but then again you need a place with a steady wind.
