Howdy folks,

I've just added the first Rev tutorial to our official Kitelife Subscriber's section!

It walks you step by step through doing the axel on a Rev 1.5, and also gives you a sneak peek at the new Revolution kite which will be coming out at the KTAI show on January 25th... We've uploaded this tutorial in 720x480 and 1440x1080 MPGs, as well as an iPod (MP4) version for when you're out on the field.

And yes, we did do a picture-in-picture tutorial on this one, with hands and kite.

If you haven't subscribed yet, now is the time... Aside from the tutorial, there are already a whole bunch of large-res quad performances on video!

We'll be adding a few more as the year goes on, building up eventually to the full release of a new and updated advanced Rev Flying video from Revolution.

One thing I will ask of our subscribers, is to not distribute the tutorial, it is available to any of our subscribers, as thanks for their support of Kitelife... Also, keep any information or gossip about the new kite under your hat until the 25th of January, you can wait a couple of weeks!

If you'd like, I will answer select questions by direct email.

Thanks to all, it's good to share the skies with all of you.

Be advised, as of 5:16 PST today, the 1440x1080 version is 78% uploaded... Should be totally on line by 6pm at the latest.

Oh, public for sure... Right here.

Just trim out any specifics about the kite, video/composition is fair game.
