I think it would be great for kites. I'm not familiar with ripstop polyester, but I am with ripstop nylon, and I'm thinking it's the same sort of material. There are different types of nylon; some have the rubbery waterproof backing, which you don't need. It does fray quite easily though, so be sure to finish or secure the edges well. If you'd like more detailed information on ripstop nylon, refer to the source of my answer. Thank you and have fun. =D

Ripstop would be much better for a kite; it's generally used for outdoor garments, like a light jacket. I think it's waterproof. It's not pricey at all where I live.

i think that ripstop is much more durable and much more pricey
