hello, i try to find a Revolution indoor. i will consider if it is a stack to. Thank you

depending of how fast you want the kite do not forget to ask if is on stock or must be ordered to Revolution.that make the delivery to be from 3-4 day to more then a month

you are right, funny part is they make the selling at a higher price then any other dealer.

i am sure JB is having an Ace on the sleeve and soon a new Barresi kite will emerge on the market

check you PM, i will let the opinions to flow for your original question

great comparison, keep it up

almost for sure Wayne speak about that "belly" formed between leading edge,spare and sowing of the trailing edge, there are not evident but the wind is create them by stretching the sail and bungee from caps.for that you make adjustments and tide the bungee after 2-3 flights

for how long you fly quads ? you do not stir nothing you just show how inexperienced you are on kiting (any kind of kite) and your taste to compare things build for different functions. apples are apples and avocados avocados. functionality, maneuverability and design play the most important aspect on the play. sails for bots are build to catch the wind and keep it in sail, kites are sliding on wind.you cant compare a V6 gas engine with a V6 Diesel. compare kites with kites and sails boats with sails boats. now Freiline comparative with Revolution, 20 years manufacturing difference,Rev invented Freiline copied on past 2-3 yeares .difference? if you will have a bit of experience and pay attention at different Rev models 1,5 , EXP, B-series, B-Pro, New York minute, Masterpiece you will see what? exactly, different sowing patterns. Because kites glide on wind different sowing patterns make the wind to slide differently spars on front ? you want to catch the wind or glide on? a boat sail will not fly if you will try to converted on to a kite.That you will do punting the spars on front,you will create that "belly" what is not admitted in kiting. yes kites not just quads are having the adjustability features but in bridle because the sail is a flat surface you see it any Revolution Reflex? yes Reflex is having a belly but in opposite side of wind,That make the sail to glide on wind no matter from where is blowing how long you are in around 140-150 degrees on the front Forth question you ask is the answer of the first, kites must be a flat surface and depending of design different kites have an angle between wings (see delta kites). no questions about parafoil kites? single line,two lines,quads ? a parachute is a parafoil kite or a boat sail? in advance i answer for you, parachutes are boat sails not even close design to a parafoil kite. modern parachutes have some of the characteristics of parafoil kites give them the possibility to be flayed and steered left and right for more precision landing but any similarity is stooping there. all the best, happy more flying and how a friend will say "do not forget to breathe"

Happy New Year too all !!!

this is a great method for a short tick lines. in video presented by me they take the middle of the rope because the demonstration is for climbing ropes and the rope is 150 fits long. you may start from a convenient location for you no matter if one end is attached,on top of that and you will never have a tangle at unwinding

if the test is just about the rods is perfect documented but i find this on your conclusions "Hopefully this information is useful to you and can inspire further discussions regarding frame preferences and sail choice in the forum" and i assumed is about hole kite,frame plus sail, for that i states mi opinion and i introduce friction and tension on discussion. great job

your test is great but (from mi technical experience) not applicable to chose the frame for different kite sails, at least for 95% of flyers. Why ? you actually tested the resonance of the roads at 5" impulse. is a great input for manufacturer to detect eventually defects but in kites are another two things you don't count one is friction. roads are all the time in some friction with the sail or the leading edge slave.that make the response time and frequency (vibration) to be much lower. second uncounted factor is tension. at any moment the roads are under some tension except when you make a sudden release of a line. that happening only on short lines ( under 30 fits) when you execute acrobatics movements. on 75,80 and 120 fits the drag of lines will maintain a certain tension for 5% renaming flyers your test is great because is show the stress and how much vibrations a certain road may sustain at aggressive moves before to break i may be wrong, "mea culpa "

is not a perfect way to wind the lines without some tangles.Winding the lines you make a rotating movement around axes of lines creating a "tangle". you must just to pay attention when you line up the lines for fly. if the unwinding is to fast you will keep the tangling. after the lines are unwind take the sleeved parts (left to right and right to left) and with some tension on them open your arms.That will make the tangling created at winding to unwind themselves most of the times. you will still have some but nothing major. with time and experience you will find the way(your own) to wind and unwind the lines with minimal tangling. pay attention to do not push the handles one trout each other,that is the most annoying tangling. For you SegelFlieger try to wind any electrical cable,long rope or cable on this way. you will be amazed how easy and how clean the winding and unwinding will be

if you have windows PC easy and free is windows movie maker. are some more advanced software but you must to buy them

Montrose beach but Deke Haid thank me for the flying we have on Turkey Day at Busse Woods

any time

Merry Christmas to all !!!

for sure are spectra

0-3 i use 2 wraps or diamond 3-5 2 wraps 5-10 3 wraps 10-15 4 wraps or combination of 2+3 wraps

i already on to another post told you about setups and fly style, nobody is making the same maneuver with the same movement and J.B. is a prime ballerina (on the good way ) is not making just the movement for the kite he is dancing with. do not try to understand what anybody is doing, try to do the moves how you feel to be done and are you comfortable

i'm in !!

always you are right ! i just wait the spring

actually being "out there" will help you understand what is about in this discussions and most important to find out the best setup for your stile. start from second knot on bottom and third on top and see how it is. after couple of minutes change to second knot on top and check again. play and change,play and change till you will find the best solution for you.till you understand exactly how different knots change the acting of the kite do not change the bottom to may always have a reference.when you catch what and how start to play with the bottom leader. how long you do not feel the kite and different setups any discussion is just teory

nice ! i hop not to humid

if you pull the top lines you create lift for kite,for that launching or lift is also named "thumb up". is good to try to compare different "sails" but is a must to put them on the same situation. Only my opinions of course
