SHBKF Posted October 29, 2017 Report Posted October 29, 2017 Don't know how many PB 4-8's are loose in the wild but I suspect not too many. A few years ago I was concerned that they might stop making them. I made it a priority to try to acquire a new one. My chance came when I was offered a gift of my own choosing by the company I was working for as a reward for many years service. They were somewhat startled when I requested a kite. Here's a picture of mine one day when I leaned it against the Cruze & the wind pinned it to the car. Kind of makes the scale of a four meter sail more imaginable. Years before my second Revolution kite chosen was this PB 2-4. I had some kind of illusion that it would possibly be a suitable light wind kite... not hardly. The big one has a 12' leading edge. This smaller one is a mere 10' long. Both are huge kites & not for the timid flyer. The PB 2-4 flies somewhat like it's conventional cousin, the Rev 1. But I would humbly say the Big One, the PB 4-8, is in a class of it's own. You will be using larger control movements & the "Archer's Stance" quite a bit. You might be unknowingly gritting your teeth when the power locks in & you lean back with your arms stretched out in front of you, your knees bent, feet scrambling to manage the massive power in even light winds, great fun. I am keeping mine. SHBKF 3 Quote
