I don't think I'm the only one that wants to see video here.. looking forward to honest feedback once you tune them to you individual styles.

[John Barresi]

Just chopped up some cheap lines yesterday, hoping for a flight today!

[John Barresi]

As I suspected, just horrible...

Flown as it arrived, only mod was adding a shorter knot on the bottom line attachments at the kite end to compensate for using Rev handles.

Hey, John. Try some 1/16" or 3/32" carbon rod in the trailing edge. That will make it stop tip stalling and help dramatically with reverse. Other than that it flies just like a Rev.

From experience, that causes other issues.  Once you get it tuned to your individual flying, those issues all but disappear.

Fantastic job all around Rob and JB. Who'd a thunk you were starting a craze. I know I love mine, fun kite to fly.

Agreed.

Hey, what are you guys up to ? 🤔

[riffclown]

@Reef Runner

Maybe nothing but I wouldn't count on it..

 

[riffclown]

would love some opinions on a possible custom color run..

[John Barresi]

Oh man, that black / grey / blue is DYNAMITE! 

[John Barresi]

More fun, getting KINKY with it...

Some Smiles just can't be bought.. The face says it all..

@John Barresi I bet you never thought you'd have that much fun with a foil before April..

 

FWIW, I still feel the same way every time I fly mine and I've been flying them for over 4 years now.. You might be talking me into a dogstake now though..

Tit for tat, as it were.
