Show Me Your Revs.

[linekahuna]

Let's see what you fly.
This Rev is named "Beau" after one of my black cats.
Note the green of the eyes is in a different place than a standard Ninja Eyes kite.
Homemade Revs? You judge whether you want to post them.

[Mike]

I think you should feel free to post home-made revs here. It's a little rude on the Rev forum, but I think it's OK on other forums.

Here's a small, random sampling.

My signed Anniversary Kite:


The 180GO! Rok:


An IKE Square kite. I never like the way it flew and incorporated the sail into the current club kite:


A custom kite being flown at a harvest festival:


A Circoflex in the club colors:

oops, I didn't read the title. It said "show me your revs".
Well, a couple of them are revs...

Mike,

Well, I think we should ignore Jim on this one ... I mean ... he drags out a custom/custom ninja and then asks to see our revs. And here we are without even a Pro kite in the bunch. Look Mike, you haven't even upgraded to an Amateur series kite yet. Talk about a bunch of mid-west hicks. Dang. Dang. And, double dang.

Well, maybe Ken's custom vented (tribal venting) kite will have to do.

Depressed,
Tom

I also have two "B" series Rev in lime, one full vent, the other mid-vent a Rev 1 in yellow and pink .
Have two others but are homemade.
The Ninja is my favorite one when equipped with Race Rods.
I love to scare the kids with it.
Going to stack all six one day.

Here is one I drew up but not made.


BOO!

Hicks or not, we are all in the same family, Rev lovers.
Custom Revs are okay to fly so people can see them.
Besides, I like to get the kids to interact with my Revs.
Have them hold out their hand and do a wing tip stand on one of their fingers.
They love it.
Attach a coat hanger to the end of the leading edge to pick items up such as a plastic
bucket or other objects.
Have you played catch and toss with a Rev? Try it, you'll like it.

Ignore me? Hahahaha. That's a good one. Love it!

Jim,

If you take me serious when I'm whining, we'll both get in trouble. Actually, if you take me seriously, you'll be the first. I think it's great that you've joined the forum ... even with that *&%& kite. Please stay and enjoy the company.

Yes, I did try catch and toss ... with Mike's anniversary kite.

Cheers,
Tom

I've relied on good looks, charm, and sponsorship for my kite collection for several years. I have been thinking of buying a new kite though.
Indoor or Pro?
Haven't decided yet.

I did get to fly the B-series kite a lot last year, even if it wasn't my own personal kite.
I've also flown a Pro and lots of masterpiece series kites although they don't live in my bag.

[linekahuna]

Aha! Jeepster, I recognized that handle elsewhere.
Here is another of my Revs.


Have one full-vent and one mid-vent.
Would like to have a five-stack of them.

[Kitehead]

Only two Revs so far. I'm a bit late to this game.



The vent is sort of plain jane rainbow, but I like the Standard colors a lot.

[Nick]

that's good to have all those nice kites but be able to fly them is the best part I have a purple b vented that I fly and I want a purple b stander. And that works for me I mean of course I would love to fly the others but it's what works

[Frodos Majik]

Here are a couple of shots of my personally made custom vented rev. Which was originally was a 1.5sle with mylar. I cut out the mylar and replaced it with lime green rip stop. Did a search on tribal art found some pieces I liked, modified to my liking and added the screening material for venting.

and with out further ado...

[backdraft]

I better not post pics of my revs the wife would find out how many we have and she may not let me buy any more(like a couple new custom mid-vents).

[TeamTrejo]

Here are my Revs.

.....warning , included are some "old fashioned" duel line kites.

[Mike]

Isaac, the "quad stack" kite is new to me. What's the history behind that kite(s)?

[TeamTrejo]

Hey Mike

Those kites are Rev copys called Angle Quads or somthing like that. I got those in a kite trade with a guy from Texas back in my transition form duel line to Quad and before flying with 180Go!

I have six identical kites with stacking lines, a 300 lb X 90' quad line set and custom handles. I've only flown them a couple of times. Kinda of embaressed about the whole thing now as they are Rev copys and I have loyalty to Revolution. Awhile back Ben from Revolution posted that he would trade any Rev copys towards a real Rev. I e-mailed him but he never answered.

[Babbman]

I only have a few Revs..

[albumimg]989[/albumimg]

There are 6 or 8 additional ones not pictured...lol

[Jeepster]

Well, I have a B-series vented and non-vented plus a common SUL kite. The fourth Rev is an uncommon SUL kite that John B was kind enough to donate to me when I won a raffle last year. This is a picture of it on it's maiden flight. I don't name kites, but this kite looks like something out of a Victoria Secret catalogue ... thus, it simply had to be named Victoria.

Cheers,
Tom

[Mike]

It's a nice looking kite. I always liked iQuad's night flying kites.

[Jeepster]

It's a nice looking kite. I always liked iQuad's night flying kites.

It was actually very neat looking in the snow. I didn't plan on flying it, but when I got to the beach it simply became time to try it. When the Washington field is either frozen or snow covered, I plan on using the auto dealership lights to try flying it at night.

Cheers,
Tom
