REV bar modification

Postby DMCD » Thu Nov 22, 2007 2:24 pm

Hy,
since i dont really like the position of the trimmer on the original position, i´ve changed some things as you can see in the photos.

The bar is perfect now! :)

I did everyting with the original trimmer.

If anyone want more photos i can post them.

(sorry for my bad english)

I think it doesn´t have it.

Instead of that setup you could do a setup like the 2008 North bar...that way you could add the stopper ball....also the north cleat is a must.

Hy Seaman,

I´ve allready think in what you said, but in moment i can´t get any 2008 trimmer from north or f.one, which haves the same sistem on the bar.

do you have any photo of the north 2008 trimmer system/bar?

It will!!!

But, in my opinion, one of the greatest things about SS bars is the active stopper ball. Beside that, your bar is looking crap now! sorry for that...

You can find in north site pictures of the trim set up...but you are right the 2008 cleat is not available at the moment :( ....but you could use the 2007 cleat (it´s avalable at Triologia or flysurf).
why? you think that it will not work?
It´s going to work don´t to listen to him.....you just have to pay atention to the depower stroke and trim the lines so that when you pull the bar the lines are equal......the systems with the depower set under the bar are a pain in the neck to ajust in fly and you have to use the stopper ball to limit the bar travel.
It´s nice to see people chaging the setup's to their liking.

So are you liking the REV? I´m a bit curius with this kite.

Hy,

The measurs are the same, i just give lots of attention to the distances, its all correct :)

very happy with the REV, great kite!
Any day when you came to the north of Portugal i can meet with you and you can test it as long as you want :thumb:

I will try to contact triologia and see if they have any trimmer.
