CLTKiter Posted January 29, 2004 Report Share Posted January 29, 2004 I've seen pictures of the new Power Blast Power Blast Pic but can't tell how big it really is. Has anyone personally seen it? How big is it, and what will it be used for? Kitesurfing? Later, Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penny Lingenfelter Posted January 30, 2004 Report Share Posted January 30, 2004 Wow! That is big. John, contact Rev. and get specs. Or I guess we can all go see if it's on the web page yet. Wow! That's big! BB Penny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

windofchange Posted May 5, 2004 Report Share Posted May 5, 2004 Hi everyone, hope I am not jumping into something that I shouldn't be. Just stumbled onto the forum here and found many of the topics very interesting. First post for this forum and hope to fit in with ya'll. That is the power blast 4-8. That picture was taken at the KTAI in Clearwater Florida. I am trying to remember exactly and think the leading edge is about 14 feet - it stood close to 5 foot tall. That thing pulls like a bus! Tremendous amount of power. We were flying it in 5-8 mph winds and digging some pretty serious trenches in the sand with it. I have one on order that should be here by the end of next week. When it arrives I will get some exact measurements off of it if anyone is interested. Should get some pictures as well if the wind cooperates. I currently have the Blast and the Power Blast 2-4 (Super Blast 2003). BTW, if anyone doesn't know the reason behind the 2-4 and the 4-8, a 2-4 is a 2 meter kite that pulls like a 4 meter, the 4-8 is a 4 meter kite that pulls like an 8. Hope to talk to all of you a bunch! Happy Winds! Kent www.awindofchange.com customerservice@awindofchange.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penny Lingenfelter Posted May 5, 2004 Report Share Posted May 5, 2004 Hi windofchange, We are very glad to have you here. Thanks for the info. You know we could probably go to the rev site, but it's not near as much fun as visiting in here. Talk lots, share your opinion, thoughts, ideas, experiences, and tell your friends. We are looking for more people in here from the east coast too. I like the info you gave on meter comparisons. And then some day we'll probably meet you. It's such a small world. Rev on!

windofchange Posted May 31, 2004 Report Share Posted May 31, 2004 Got my power blast 4-8 in and have been able to do some boarding and buggying with it....awesome kite with some incredible power. Was out on the dry lake bed last weekend buggying with the 4-8 along side of my buddy on his JoJo 5m. I had more speed and better upwind (and I am about 75 pounds heavier than he is). The kite dumps 99% of the power instantly making straight downwind launches no problem at all. The hardest thing with this kite is just trying to get the buggy speed up to match the kite as it hits the edge of the window so quickly. Couple loops back into the window does the trick pretty quick and then park and hang on! Very impressive for sure - love this thing! Here's a picture of it sitting next to my 1.5 stack at the park. Yup, it's big! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
