adampoll Posted August 8, 2007 Report Share Posted August 8, 2007 Hi, Im from the UK and have a standard B series currently. I need a Vented so i dont lose any flying time. I am wondering if it is possible to buy just a sail. Does anyone know if this is possible from anywhere. Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spence Watson Posted August 8, 2007 Report Share Posted August 8, 2007 Buying a sail is no problem. I've had to replace a 1.5 sail because it had a big rip in it, and was able to get a brand new one. I suggest www.thekiteshoppe.com. On the first page that popps up should be some contact info. Just get a hold of Theresa and I'm sure she'd be able to sort something out for you.

MrDenny Posted August 8, 2007 Report Share Posted August 8, 2007 Just a vented sail? I don't think there is a diff. in the B other than markings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wufer Posted August 8, 2007 Report Share Posted August 8, 2007 I got an EXP sail only from kiteworld.co.uk You might try them. Derek. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Barresi Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 The fabric on the B-Series is supposedly different than the SLE, and the panels are laid out to achieve an effect (see B-Series page). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrDenny Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 I thought the vents went in place of the "special" panels" . Oh well, for sure listen to John as he is far and away the knowledge man when it comes to this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spence Watson Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 Why are people talking about the panal arangment (I spelt that wrong) all of a sudden? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adampoll Posted August 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 I have tried both stores suggested above and had a initial reply from them, to which i have replied but i am still waiting for a response from them, Has anyone else had such poor customer service from these stores? Thanks Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Adam What you are asking for is something that is normally not stocked by a dealer nor do I suspect they have it listed in their price list. They would have to check this out with Revolution before they can give you a straight forward answer. I can tell you right now, neither of the two mentioned stores serve their customers poorly, but are well known to serve their customers exceptionally well.

Spence Watson Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 You're may be having trouble with The Kite Shoppe at the moment, because Theresa is at WSIKF right now. She can be hard to reach durring festivals. I would try next week with either The Kite Shoppe or streight from Revolution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harrier Posted August 26, 2007 Report Share Posted August 26, 2007 The folk from Kiteworld are at the Portsmouth Festival right now, I expect they will be back soon :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spence Watson Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 For the best results for an order like this, you may want to call Revolution (www.revkites.com) and order directly. But once again, many people are at festivals. Both Ben and Lolly are at WSIKF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adampoll Posted September 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2007 still no replies 3 weeks on. Oh dear. I might one day be able to fly a rev in howling winds. Ill try 1 last time then im giving up and getting my dual line out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spence Watson Posted September 3, 2007 Report Share Posted September 3, 2007 that's strange. I've never had this problem before, I would suggest calling again tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Barresi Posted September 4, 2007 Report Share Posted September 4, 2007 Adam, try calling Rev between 10am-3pm, Tuesday through Thursday, PST... That's when the most staff is in-house at Rev. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kite Shoppe Posted September 6, 2007 Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 Adam, I e-mailed you on Aug 13th and told you the B Series is sold as a Package only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adampoll Posted September 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 Yes thanks I know, I did sent another reply back asking what the availability and price of none b series vented 1.5 were but no answer. Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spence Watson Posted September 7, 2007 Report Share Posted September 7, 2007 do you mean a non-vented B-Series? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adampoll Posted September 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2007 A normal 1.5 vented, not a b series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
