REVflyer Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 Well if we are experimenting, lets go wild! Maybe a REV2 in all white Icarex then (including the leading edge sleeve) and Harold Ames could possibly be convinced/significantly influenced to tie-dye the sail, (acid etch dyes + an autoclave using 2 atmospheres of pressure & 240 degrees F) This process leeches the dyes thru the fabric's coating and steam-sets the color permanently. Not like design master paints (merely resting on the surface of nylon material), much more powerful colors are possible than printed Rev sails can reproduce using "four color process methods" in a commercial application on Icarex. its the same color value, intensity etc on both sides of the fabric and good for literally thousands of abusive hours!

monkey Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 My needs are simple. I'd like a credit card, paid by someone else, that is preloaded with a 5 million United airmiles so I could spend a year going to a different kite festival every weekend around the world. Well, you asked. Have a great Christmas everyone! And a great 2011! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwmf Posted December 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 I don't have any credit cards or air miles sitting around, but I do have accomodation I'm sure Jacqui and Greg have been twisting your arm but it won't hurt for me to twist a little more...

Aerochic Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 I love mine! Holds 6-8 kites, two or more line sets and handles, stakes, and a chilled bottle of wine! Your bag is a thing of simple beauty. The wine would would be a wonnnnderful upgrade! Well if we are experimenting, lets go wild! Maybe a REV2 in all white Icarex then (including the leading edge sleeve) and Harold Ames could possibly be convinced/significantly influenced to tie-dye the sail YES!!! My needs are simple. I'd like a credit card, paid by someone else, that is preloaded with a 5 million United airmiles so I could spend a year going to a different kite festival every weekend around the world. Can I get in line on this idea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
