It's not the size of your Rev.. its how you use it.
Seven days without flying a Rev makes one weak.

I do not know the 'spec' but they felt very light in the hand on Blackheath yesterday and are 'rainbow' sparkly in appearance <grins>

I did not fly the kite but it seemed to perform OK in the circumstances...

Maybe next weekend!

Special Limited.

Iridescent wrap gives these rods a reflective bling that is totally awesome. The carbon and wrap is the same as the normal RACE rods.

So how do you get these ultra sexy rods? Can you just order them from your local shop? um..no... Can you order them from Rev? um..no... Do they come in some special ultra fancy "Ultra Rev" kite that has not yet been released........


I guess the master Ben will have to clue us all in on just how you get a set of these beauties.




AFIK, there isn't any new ultra rev...but it would be kewl if there were.
Happy Winds!

Can the SPL rods be seen through the sail? Maybe through the vents?
Bling for the folks standing on the other side of the kite.... Works for me!
Since there's no price tag on them yet, maybe they're free Posted ImagePosted ImagePosted Image

The bling is only a part of the Race SPL rods where they really shine is in a midvent in very bumpy wind
and in the standard sail in very light wind....Posted Image Because of the material used and the lay up what you
have is a very light stick with huge amounts of strength and a very fast reflex and the speed of the reflex
is what make all of the Race series so special... The only draw back is how very hard it is to just make these
rods but thats what we do..... The biggest thing is giving you the best product possible with the very best raw
materials cause we here care and we here fly what we make. When you live and breath kites it's important
to make only the very best and to keep on trying new things, so enjoy and give it a whirl when you can.... BenPosted ImagePosted ImagePosted Image

Often I get wind of new products(sworn to absolute secrecy), before they come out. This time I didn't have a clue until I noticed Ben mentioning them in the REVO CLINIC 2012 thread.
They look real nice.

I saw a set of them at Kite Party this past weekend. They look cool but I didn't get a chance to fly em.
Shari Devareux (sp) outbid all other comers at the auction and went home with the set. Congrats to her!

So what you are saying Ben is you made these especially for me seeing as I accel with my midvent in ultralight wind. How are they compared to the silver bullets as those with a midvent are like a indoor kite to me ???? OH! and when are you sending me some Posted Image :kid_smartass:
