Disclosed is a collapsible kite frame that permits at kite to be fit into an economical shipping box, thereby significantly decreasing the costs associated with shipping. The kite frame utilizes a double revolute joint to connect the support members of a kite frame. A support sheath locks the joint and support members in a straight alignment, but, when removed, the support members are free to rotate and move inward, towards each other, thereby shortening the combined length span of the support members when in a straight alignment.
