Information About Us

Cobra Kites has been owned and operated by Jeanne and Ray Merry. They are both very passionate about the many facets of kiting and have a long history in the kiting industry. Their diverse experience includes not only designing kites, but all phases of manufacturing, wholesaling and retail sales. Now primarily designing and building Custom Kites. Their roots in custom and design work began in the early 70's. Their work has included the patented FlexiFoil®, SkyTigers, Scorpion, Speed Sailing records, studio design work, custom corporate installations, advertising and show kites. You may have seen their work in films or advertisements and not even realized it.

Cobra Kites operated a kite specialty retail store in Toms River, NJ for 18 years. During that time, they also organized and ran 'Cobra Kites Wednesday Kite Nite' on the beach in Seaside Park, NJ. A well attended weekly Summer kite fly with thousands gathering to watch and fly kites. Quite a spectacle. You are likely to spot them often flying along the Jersey Shore beaches. They may be testing a new design or prototype, or just enjoying their love of flying kites with friends.

We now specialize only in custom kites and design work. Take a look at our eBay store for other related items.
