  1. hi again guys.. Im still saving for my Rev SUL. Now i was offered with a used twice, full package of Rev JB series, RTF, minus the DVD for $275. The package come with 150# lines. Im wondering, if i use the 2 wraps spar with a lighter lines, will it perform like SUL kite? i meant, can it perform say, in 1 or 2 mph wind? If yes, what is the line weight and length recommended. Thanks in advance.
  2. Hi Bill.. On my inland field, we get a 'good' gusty wind (5-13mph) during Dec-Feb, where usually i do powerkite.. Else 1-3mph throughout the year.. i want to kite during the 'no wind' days.. thats why im thinking of SUL.. Guys.. will ponder the 'standard sail + race rods' stuff.. many many thx
  3. Hi guys.. many many thx for the reply.. Previously, I was given a full 5 min session with a quad, by one of the flyer here. I have no problem in basic maneuver the quad. Reverse, forward and loop. Its the same hand movement as powerkite. The only different is, flying a quad stunt kite need alot more gentle wrist movement Thats, i need to get hang of it. As the field I frequent has a very low wind + gusty too, is SUL right for me? Howard, could you elaborate why SUL is prob not good for first REV? difficult to learn? TIA
  4. Hi guys... Im looking at a quad but kind of confuse on so many series, the Rev have. Can anyone throw me a link as what a series in Rev all about. Many thx in advance.
  5. Duane.. I will go for quad... many thx..
  6. Thx JoneZ n Duane for the advice.. Duane, Im 43 now and I fly powerkite for 3-4 yrs now. At that time, I want to try something diff for my hobby. My wife said these power kites are not for my age. hahaha When I bought the Quantum 2yrs back I thought I want to learn trick with it, but unfortunately, whenever im on the field, powerkite is the one Im flying. I think I flew my Quantum for not more than 5 times.. I feel no enjoyment flying it, maybe due to the low wind. Not to mention, I think I covered more than 2-3 miles of 'walk of shame' Wind in Singapore generally never hit 13mph throughout the year. Inland will be lower. So can I say, I will be better of with UL kite? Yes, Im looking for REV UL too
  7. Hi guys.. This is my first post eventho im a member since 2008. I own a few powerkites and 1 stunt kite - Prism Quantum. Now im downed due to knee fractured after mishap when jumping in gusty condition with my 6m powerkite. So i think i should mellow down abit and fly my quantum after im ok. Quantum is quite heavy and need a good wind to fly. My field's condition is gusty with low wind ard 3mph, so im wondering, if there anything i can do to make the quantum fly better in low wind. Many thanks in advance.
