cbabbman Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 I love my 2-4... especially when winds are marginal and I still want some decent pull.. I do have to say that living in Chicago with the crappy winds we get, I have become adept at flying something in the low winds... usually my 1.5 with the SUL rods in it... Of course, having a variey of Revs to fly helps out a lot.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandman Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 Just be careful in high wind. You don't want your rotary cuff injured. Hmmm... I tore my rotary cuff about a year ago on a mountain bike. I'm due for surgery next month. I've flown the Blast a few times in some pretty stiff wind and my shoulder didn't feel bad at all.

Gaines Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 i took mine off a year ago and never put them back on *raises hand* Newb with a question. What are downbridles? I just got a used 4-8 and haven't yet had any steady winds to try it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ant man Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 the downbridles are the 2 white bridles that connect to the top and bottom bridles of the blast.. the help with changeing the pitch of the kite .. some fliers like them .. i dont use them .. youll have to fly it to see if you like them or not .. if not you can remove them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
