riffclown Posted October 3, 2020 Report Posted October 3, 2020 Commissioned sail started this morning. Will be perspective style 72" full sail. More pics as they become available. LE is completed and ready.. Trim and details will be black. Quote
riffclown Posted October 4, 2020 Author Report Posted October 4, 2020 Pattern check... check... Quote
riffclown Posted October 4, 2020 Author Report Posted October 4, 2020 Almost time to start sewing.. Quote
riffclown Posted October 5, 2020 Author Report Posted October 5, 2020 The panels are sewn now. finished that up last night. LE, Edge binding, Framing, Trimming and Bridling remain.. This is a slightly different center pattern for this design. I went an additional diagonal from the previous pattern and I think it makes the center "bend" the eye a bit more. 1 Quote
riffclown Posted October 8, 2020 Author Report Posted October 8, 2020 OK Finally got a chance to do the trimwork.. Will Frame and Bridle this tonight. Should be ready to mail NLT Tuesday.. Quote
Zuul Posted October 9, 2020 Report Posted October 9, 2020 When I see that flying at shoreline, there won’t be any question who’s on the lines! Totally unique. 2 1 Quote
Sardonycus Posted October 9, 2020 Report Posted October 9, 2020 Yup, it'll be me lol. Hard to hide flying this one. Hopefully I'll have it by next weekend. Been awhile since I've flown a Rev 2. They are hard to come by so I'm super excited. 1 Quote
riffclown Posted October 9, 2020 Author Report Posted October 9, 2020 It's Ready for the Bridle Test. @Sardonycus You get to name this sail. It's 100% your call. My one suggestion: "Veraton" comes to mind. (Backwards for Not A Rev) 1 1 Quote
Sardonycus Posted October 9, 2020 Report Posted October 9, 2020 Love Veraton! So be it. Done deal. Quote
riffclown Posted October 9, 2020 Author Report Posted October 9, 2020 Quick Bridle Balance Check.. Winds are non-existent today but I hope to do a proper test this afternoon.. This kite is quick. 1 Quote
riffclown Posted October 9, 2020 Author Report Posted October 9, 2020 Yeah, this is a fun kite.. Needs a touch of breeze but it'll be fun and quick. 1 Quote
Sardonycus Posted October 10, 2020 Report Posted October 10, 2020 It really looks beautiful in the sky. The pattern with the black/yellow looks very cool. 1 Quote
riffclown Posted October 10, 2020 Author Report Posted October 10, 2020 @Sardonycus Well, it's headed your way now. Details sent in a private message.. Quote
Sardonycus Posted October 10, 2020 Report Posted October 10, 2020 Thanks, it's exactly what I was hoping it would be. Will hit Shoreline next weekend! Quote
Sardonycus Posted October 14, 2020 Report Posted October 14, 2020 Got the kite today and got to fly it briefly after work. It looks fantastic and flys better than my original Rev 2. Will post a review soon. 1 Quote
