Hey Bow and Bonefish and any other rev flying kite nutters I dont know if any of you are aware of this but there is a get together (kite flying weekend) up north its not a camping type of shindig but they have got us a good rate on the hotel - £25 per room per night instead of about £50 At least three of the flying squad and two of the decorators will be there for help and advice heres the link to the info www.revkites.com/forum/index.php?/topic/3640-uk-rev-flying-weekend-north-east-england/all the best Baz |

Between Sunderland and Chester-le-Street .... I used to live there! Thanks for letting everybody know, its a bit far for me to go but if there were a few people interested, sharing the fuel costs could make it a viable trip for keen rev fliers?

Cheers Baz, Thanks for posting I would love to go but it was a 7+ hour trip from here (Bognor) to Washington last time I went to the festival. Another Dunstable one, like that was held a couple of years back would be better for me, it was great fun, Stephen Hoath and some of the FS were there. The Decs also made an appearance  |

Perhaps Bow can run a rev style workshop down this neck of the woods for all us novice kite weekend pilots ?
I hope we will see you in a field in the not to distant future !

I was going to fly the Zen and to observe the curve when it gets slightly powered up with these new rods, but I am not sure it would look much different. My other idea was to use a different fill stitch pattern on the design, something that might look like the pattern of Icarex ripstop and then stitch these with the bias direction of the panels used on the kite. It may not work but I fancy giving it a try, somewhere on the design would be the Revolution Kites and Zen logo Dave |
