4lnKITE

Alright everyone, you've all been a big help in the past, I don't think this will be any different. I'm making my own bag for my revs, the decision was made by revolution being sold out of their bags, and I just kinda like to be different. I've got the design done and have begun sewing but I'm looking for some patches for the outside, and maybe inside of the bag. Can anyone help with somewhere to get Revolution, Revguild, Laser pro, polokites, Los Hermanos or KITELIFE (ah-hem, JB) patches. anything will help. Wish me luck as I've never sewn before and I'm learning as I go.

Was out flying with Dave two weeks ago; check out this saaaweeeeet custom 75% mesh. Or check the profile at davesim5. Pretty cool, anyone else have custom pics? You'll have to check the profile, can't post a picture here.

Well I was trying the not saying anything approach to the RNG to fly under the radar; but the heck with that. 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903, 903

I may be a newbie, this mid-vent would fit well between the crisp new full sail, and full vent in the bag. Since the RNG didn't pull my number for my birthday and the Kymera drawing, I wouldn't turn down a mid-vent. It would lighten up my christmas list. good luck everyone!!!

Birthday On the 23rd; c'mon Kymera! 

Congrats Pete Webster!!!! A nice new rev!. Enjoy!

.  

Agreed; JB I hope nationals went well and you're feeling better. No harm in prompting the RNG though!!! Not a clue what my number is but I'm sure we will all know it in a day or two 8P.

I'm in for Oct 6th!

Patience is a virtue.... (sounds of pacing)

One day till someone has a new purple Rev!!! Purple may be my new favorite color.

Its my number coming up! Beginners luck! Dora anyone know my number?... You will in 4 days... Wow four is my lucky number. Here we go!!!

Good call Pete. Never quite thought of it like that. I do watch football because even though there are many players, if you look at the plethora of college football teams, and players, compared to the ones who actually "make it" it is still very fine company. I am a competitor by nature and like to feel absolutely confident in what I do. I enjoy golfing, and obviously flying, and love the chance to hone my skills; however, I also play soccer on a very competitive US Amateur league and get the sme satisfaction from winning, or playing well, in a team event. I don't think that just because there are more people involved that it decreases the skill level.

(singing...) :0 "HAIL TO THE REDSKINS, HAIL VICTORY!" Mmm ...purple B series... 8P

Sweet, that would be a great addition to the collection for my birthday. 10-23. First voodoo... must86 from the YouTube vids that is up your ally. Nice, BTW

Ok, what wind range should I use the 2 wrap, 3 wrap, and the 3wrap with the doubled leading edge to be safe for the kite?

Alright fellas, first flight went way better than I expected. Had 4-5 mph wind, used the 2 wrap frame and in fifteen minutes hit two axles and a flic flac!!! Just kidding, seriously though, only got to fly for about 40 min and the wind was variable(was not in a large open area) flight was very nice. Take offs were good inverted and upright, made some leisurely turns, landings were gentle. I had a hard time making it hover smoothly, but I'll attribute that to light wind and mostly inexperience. About 30 min in I got a little overconfident and pancaked it for my only walk of shame. it was a blast! This weekend I'm heading to the Chesapeake bay, looking forward to some better wind and hours of flying. Im coming off of reconstructive knee surgery from playing soccer and told my wife I'd consider giving up soccer for the safer sport kiting.

Kent, that's ironic, just spoke to you on the phone last week about advantages of buying a 1.5 sle or the b-series. B series it was from A Wind of Change. Great service by the way. John and Kent, thank you both for the advice I appreciate your time. I was as giddy as a child opening that package today; with any luck we'll have the maiden voyage tomorrow, might be taking a long lunch I'll keep you posted.

Haven't heard or seen the names yet, but this is my third day on the site. I'll look for the names and send a message, I'd love to hook up with someone "in the know" if you speak to them regularly send them my way. Thanks! PS - not a dual line lost. Still love 'em  just looking for a new challenge. As I said, I'm a perpetual student. 

Thanks stroke victim, good info. I've enjoyed reading a bunch of your other posts as well. Stepping into it or giving to it will stick in my mind. I got the standard B series as I live in Lancaster county PA. Not a lot of high wind days, most days 5-8 mph. If all goes well With learning I'll purchase one of the vented models for the higher wind days at the beach. Looking for an every day flyer to get my feet wet. Keep the info coming guys; I'm a sponge when it comes to new ventures! Thanks again I'll talk to you again with more questions and flight updates.
