Photo by @argonautphoto (Aaron Huey). Noor Agha is widely acknowledged as the best kite-maker in Afghanistan. Every Friday in the spring his kites appear on Nadir Khan Hill in a Kabul suburb, where hundreds gather to fly and fight kites, and chase those that fall.
Agha treats every kite he makes as a work of art, marking each with his name and signature scorpion image. Even though very few of the kites will be used in competition, he uses the techniques on every one of them that he developed in his years of flying and fighting.
To make the kites “fighting kites,” the strings are often coated in glass and glue, to cut the competitor's string in mid air. Another role in this game is "kite running," which seems almost as important as kite fighting. Once a kite is cut, the #KiteRunner chases after the fallen kite and tries to run it down and retrieve it.
