Anyone recommend a brand or type of sunny strap so my sunnies don't fall off when kiting?
Thanks
Careful wearing normal sunnies when kiting. I've heard of them smashing into your eyes from an impact with the bar or board etc...
You can buy impact resistant sunglasses with straps built in. I have a pair of Seabreeze Sunnies, but they are not that comfortable to be honest. I only wear them when it's really bright out.
Unfortunately I am going to have to take that risk. I have prescription sunnies, and obviously I need them on to see what I am doing. I've been kiting for months without them and I surprised how much I've achieved, but I really need them to avoid collisions with others.
Kazan,
I have had good results just using a length of kite line tied to the frame as a makeshift strap. I drilled a small hole near the end of each 'arm', then tied the line through one of the holes. The other end of the line went through the hole in the other arm then was tied back onto itself with a rolling hitch.
The rolling hitch can be slid along the line to adjust the strap. So far, even with a few decent stacks it hasn't come loose.
I also clip a safety leash (wetsuit zipper) to the sunnies but have never had them come off yet.
Hope this helps. 
I also require scrip glasses, got myself a pair of SeaSpecs ($50) and the opti fitted scrip lens. the built in strap is much better than something you will fit on normal glasses, and they don't fog up like my everyday sunnies do.
i find if the strap is elastic , they must be fitted very tight and then they hurt and still fall of during face plants .
the non elastic is much better , but it might just be my head lol
Thanks for those tips guys. Yeah I agree with the string non-elastic method as you don't want them springing out and smack back on your face!
I am going out for a session today with a makeshift string idea and I'll let you know the results.
fogging is easy to avoid. get anti fog spray from a dive shop or simply spit into the lens, wash and away you go!
I haven't got them with me ATM so don't know what brand they are but I picked up these floating straps at a boating store Whitworths, they might not look that flash by they work well.
They have a little toggle that you can pull up tight when you go out on the water, I originally bought the strap so I could wear my normal sunnies when just going for a flatwater paddle on my SUP without fear of losing them but I now use them for kiting as well.
I find my normal sunnies fog up less than all of the watersport specific sunnies that are closer fitting with rubber or foam around them, they feel fairly secure and although I haven't had them come off yet I think they would float and I would find them if I did.
