In a ready-to-fly kite having a central, longitudinal stiffening element and a flexible kite body that defines a pair of flexible wings, the axial stiffening element is comprised of a plurality of elongated stiff sections. These sections are connected together to fold relative to one another at a joint from an extended position in which the sections are axially aligned, end to end, to a folded position in which the sections lie side by side. The respective sections of the flexible kite body that correspond to the stiffener sections are free from axial restraint to permit folding of the flexible kite body sections with the stiffener sections. Also the flexible kite body sections are free from lateral restraint to permit rolling of the kite body sections together about the folded group of stiffener sections to provide a compact portable collapsed kite package.
