An inflatable kite system with an internal support structure which allows the kite to be formed into any shape desired. Shapes can include sports team logos, cartoon characters, or any other desired shape. Custom text can be printed as well for advertisement purposes. Preferably, the body is formed from Mylar, also known as BoPET (Biaxially-oriented polyethylene terephthalate), or similar materials to allow for good inflation and structural stability. The kite would be formed of two shaped pieces sealed along their edges and then sealed in multiple patterns along the faces of the two shaped pieces to form internal structural tubes. When these internal structural tubes are inflated, they act as support structures for the kite similar to existing hard-formed kite frames which rely on plastic or wooden sticks. Additional channels for being inflated may also be formed to help the kite float.
