  1. Ok. Maybe I was not clear.

    The NEW REFLEX is a 1.5 which is not in production so no one has been able to measure it with any thing. There will now be two Reflex's one being the normal size every one has seen and the new one which no one has seen is a 1.5, for people that like the 1.5 size.

    Back to your normal programming.

  2. I went to San Diego this weekend and I saw a new toy Revolution is putting out.   It is a 1.5 Reflex.   I was probably the third person to put eyes on it.   Joe brought it out to test it out as it had never been flown before.   Looked very locked in and performed great.   Also I understand all frames are interchangeable with other 1.5 Revs.   Love this company!  I also understand it will be at Longbeach.

    Just supplementing JB's info,

    The Pheonix Pro is made by Bazzer and is essentially the next step in the evolution of Revs. It's in a more limited scheme of colours but from all reports is a little sweeter to fly!

     

    B to a B Pro,

    The difference is say, a factory made kite verses a hand finished one. Simple but it's is a bit more than that.

    I have been talking to them about these too.   I love the look of these kites.   They also said rev frames fit then too.

  4. I bought a used Kymera from a kite shop and I was wondering about the weights.    There are weights on the spine and there is one weight on the tail.  I need to find out how to tune the kite with the weights and how I can get more weights I am missing.   Thank you

     

  5. After a trip to San Diego a couple of years ago I fell in love with Quad line kites.  I have been looking at them every since.  I have not had the available money or time to do anything about my want so I waited.  I have Watched JB do all kinds of kewl things with a quad and I wanted to be able to do half of what he can do.

    So, I bought a Reflex a few weeks ago and I have had a hard time getting out to fly it.  I finally got time off work last week to go out but the winds were not all that great and I felt like an old man in a nursing home, I wanted to get it up cause all the signs were there but it just wouldn't happen.  Come to find out I also had the springs on the wrong side.  Needless to say I have not given up but in the meantime I was looking for a good ground stake and I found Ocean Shore Kites.  Wonderful people there,  and I talked myself into a Freilein Vertigo.  What are your thoughts on this kite?  I know it is not a Revolution but will it handle the knocks of a newbie for a year or so and do the fly as decent as a Revolution?

    Also I am going to be in San Diego on the 12-18th of August.  I am planning on taking both the Reflex and the Vertigo with me.  Is there a get together that weekend on the 12th any where near San Diego?
