    Bead Rev

    Very Nicely done. At first I thought someone actually made a sail for Rev. out of large bubble bubble wrap. An idea I have kept around that always brings a smile when thinking about it. Sail could be used for packing in a travel case and unrolled and rodded up and away it goes. Could also be made into earrings with the post or hook from one of the leading edges end....could have the leading facing the neck on each side or outside...etc. Make them to match ones kites too. Thanks for posting Steve
  2. It must be the speed series that creates the "wild" side is us to come out. Stacking Super Sonics and other speed series together can only start being fun. Here is my take on stacking Super Sonics. They fly really well. I have set the pair up in vented and full sail versions. Since I prefer the wild and crazy pulling, speed and turns...I usually only fly the full sail version with the dual or duo set up.
  3. Aloha Windwarrior Just had to go out yesterday to "test" fly the kite we picked up from you. I have purchased "new" or barely flown kites before. Was a bit skeptical about it actually being never flown and in mint condition Still needed a vented kite for a friend. It looks, feels & flies just like a new kite. Even had that "new" kite smell. Thank You Steve
  4. Sent a PM in regards to possible purchase. Thank you Steve808
  5. So far I have had great results with Zap-A-Gap and FlexCoat Rod Finish epoxe After removal of the ferrule, I clean the ferrule as best as I can, light sanding helps also Then scrape and clean the inside of the rod. With Zap-A-Gap, I put 2 drops on the end of the ferrule and twist it in the rod to the 1/2 mark I then pull it out and add another drop or so, to be sure there is total coverage. Push back in, twisting to get full coverage. Wipe and clean up any glue Let sit about 5 min. Done Never had one come loose up so far Flex Coat epoxe rod finish I have used before for coating the thread wraps on fishing rods. I have even used it on some of my rod ends that have cracked or split. I tried it on ferrules and so far I have not had one loosen up. Takes a long time for the glue to set up. Best to have something to keep the rod turning slowly to keep the glue from pooling. I have used the fish rod turning set up.
  6. These mid vent colors match my full vent. It sure would be nice to take it out for a spin or tow or three or a dive stop I was thinking I am in need of a new kite soon...after drooling, I mean seeing all those nice new Rev's in Seaside. This could just be the one. Thanks for all the work & time you put in... Steve
  7. Aloha John My son has this kite. It would be great to have a matching kite to his in June, my birthday month also Keep up the great work and flying Steve
