windwarrior Posted February 1, 2020 Report Posted February 1, 2020 I just acquired a stack of Rev's and a thought crossed my mind! I have a few stacks of Prism kites and they all came with a bag that stores all the kites assembled. Which makes things much easier and quicker to just get to a flying area and get flying. Does anyone have a bag to store stacks of Rev's assembled just like Prism does? Quote
oapbillf Posted February 1, 2020 Report Posted February 1, 2020 What you need is a manufacturer similar to what we have over this side of the pond, I have one of their bags that I use for quads that are folded and will hold about fifteen kites up to Rev 1 size ! https://bags4everything.co.uk/ Quote
riffclown Posted February 1, 2020 Report Posted February 1, 2020 Eliot Shook. Flying Smiles Kites. How many are in your stack? I might be able to help you also. Quote

windwarrior Posted February 1, 2020 Author Report Posted February 1, 2020 Something that has the bow tie shape would be perfect! Quote

It's a really good kite material and I've made several from it but, in this case it's what my bag will be made from.. (It's what I have the most of.)

windwarrior Posted February 2, 2020 Author Report Posted February 2, 2020 I'm guessing since these B2's are a whopping foot and a half shorter than the standard B's, these are going to be very zippy kites in comparison. 😜 Quote

windwarrior Posted February 2, 2020 Author Report Posted February 2, 2020 I thought so! Now I just need to wait for that magic wind to circle the planet, time it just right and run around the park so I can make it look just as easy. 😜🤣 Quote
Wayne Dowler Posted February 3, 2020 Report Posted February 3, 2020 Most of the custom bags for stacks you see here or on the beach are homemade or made by Bri Howard, here in Oregon. She uses a similar fabric to that in Rev bags. She will custom design with you as many slots, sizes, handle and line pockets, etc. And do stack bags too. Sorry, I don't have her web address off hand, but she also is on FB. 1 Quote

Yoyoing_p Posted February 6, 2020 Report Posted February 6, 2020 +1 for Bri, she made me a bag a few months ago and was great to work with. She customized it exactly to my liking! https://www.breezefabricworks.com/Sent from my GM1917 using KiteLife mobile app 1 Quote
