Chapi-chapi
''Chapi-chapi'' is a small, two-stick kite that can be quickly constructed from cheap materials such as newspapers, broom sticks, or discarded plastic sheet. It is very popular in the Philippines. The name itself colloquially means, "assembled fast" or "quickly improvised".〔Fadul, J. (2009). Kites in History, in Teaching, and in Therapy. Lulu Press. ISBN 978-0-557-03771-1〕 A strong, straight stick is used for the vertical frame. The horizontal stick is tensioned into a bow in order to provide greater support for the paper or plastic sheet. A very long bottom tail is almost always necessary, while the side tails or fins are optional.
This kite, with a simple two-point bridle, has moderate lateral roll and flutter (oscillation), that some kite fliers prefer in kite fighting, over stable, quiet flight. Unlike the diamond-shaped Malay kite〔http://www.inquiry.net/OUTDOOR/spring/ The Eddy and Malay Kites〕 and Eddy,〔(Bowed and Dihedral Kites at the Virtual Kite Zoo. )〕 no extra strings are used in the edges for the frame, making the ''chapi-chapi'' easier and faster to assemble but relatively more fragile. The ''chapi-chapi'' is quite similar but not identical to the Thai "female" kite called pakpao,〔(Thailand Collection 1 )〕 to the Patang or Indian fighter kite,〔http://www.salome-online.com/manjha/indien.html Indian Fighter Kite〕 and to the Nagasaki Hata or Matt Star fighter kite.〔〔http://www.salome-online.com/manjha/star.html Matt Star Fighter〕
The kite shown in the 1999 Filipino film ''Saranggola'' was a ''chapi-chapi''.
