After a slight delay I have just received 3 JB Pros as in the attached image.

I will pass the JB greys on to ATM so that is 1 gained. I also have a new Blast which will be very interesting after my time with the Shockwave and Supersonic.

Those are sweet Felix, Let us know how you like the New Blast with that 1/4" LE i'm considering getting one myself.

A nice package from Rev was on the porch tonight. Add one more for me. A 1.5 SUL mid-vent. I wish it wasn't midnight so I could go try it out. The package also had new race rods for my old Blast!! I guess the wind will decide which I will fly first.

I was wondering if the new rods for the Blast were race rods. sure would like to see some pics of those babys in action.

Yes, the Blast rods are Race rods.

I was up and out early today to try out the new Rev. Rather than go to the beach w/steady and today heavy winds I picked a park that would be a bit less wind but bumpy to try out the Mid-vent. It was perfect! :P

Add 2 John, if the Rev1 Bazzer eyes count. I now have a total of 4 as follows:

1.5 Black and Teal, modified by Bazzer to a Aerovent.

1.5 B series Night full sail

Rev1 Bazzer Eyes full sail in blue

Rev1 Bazzer Eyes vented in blue

Egad! three out of four kites I own have been worked on by Bazzer, that must be unusual.....

Life is Good........... B)

John,

Please add one more Rev to the count ... makes seven. One of my IKE friends talked me into buying his almost new, three-piece leading edged REV II. Told me it had only been flown on Sunday, in light winds and he used a professional driver ... Papa Smurf ... for all flights. He didn't really like the kite ... and I did ... end of story! Thanks Paul.

Oh, and I might have to take a break from buying kites. When I called home from the Decatur festival and mentioned to my wife that I'd bought a new kite, all she said was "Why" ...

Cheers,

Tom

New:

1 REV II ... Red and Black SLE style layout

Old:

1 SUL ... Gold and Raspberry with black center

1 SUL ... Gold and Raspberry with white center

1 SUL ... Lime and "Victoria Secret" white

1 B-series non-vented ... Purple

1 Pro mid-vent ... #4 Lime

1 B-series vented ... Gold

Don't worry Tom, all our other halves say stuff like that. I came into the living room last night to find The Rear Admiral saying "Yeh! I don't know what he sees in it either. But it seems to keep him out of the house most of the weekend and he doesn't come back smelling of diesel and fish".

I suggest that, rather than stopping, you keep on buying to your heart's content (or should that be your wallet's content) as you will be bound to be in trouble either way.

1,857 Revs between 201 pilots!

That's an average of 9.23 Revs per pilot. :D

Felix, I didn't update your count as I wasn't clear on what was in the plus/minus category... To all who post, please keep it simple, "add X, minus X".

The details are cool and good reading, but I need solid in/out numbers I can input.

Thanks! ;)

As usual... Below Average!

Hummmm... Guess I'll just have to $$$$$$$$ and bring myself up to par!

It's OK Jynx, I'm below average too. Although, there are a couple Revs that I hear calling to me at night when I am trying to sleep. I may not be able to hold them off much longer.

That's why chose to go for a matched set, it's called "Hide in Plain Sight" ;)

And the point goes to Bob on this one ... even though I don't remember you listing "fool wife" as one of the positive attributes of purchasing matching kite patterns.

Cheers,

Tom

........Also with four, (to the untrained eye), identical kites the wife has no idea how much money I have spent.....

Well you can only stretch this one so far, you can get away with telling her you only have two when

the third arrives but passing a bag full of as two, is pushing your luck a bit.

But then, being a postman they usually get to me before they get home and by the time you have a bag full the Mrs has given up anyway.

My first post and it goes towards the Rev counts ^_^ .

Started flying my first rev about 3 weeks ago with the 1.5 (had modified to race rods)...+1 I guess towards the counts....

Welcome to the Forum.

You could say that you have just taken the first step on a slippery slope.

I am sure you will need to buy more.

Hope you enjoy your Rev. Any problems just ask away.
