Hi all

thinking of getting some short rev lines either 25ft or 35ft, and im woundering
what is the best line to use, and best length? any links?

would prefer them sleeved but that doesnt matter.

thanks

Jamie

dyneema is not super... but not a bad start eather...

look for spectra. its even smoother then dynema and has less stretch ini it.
if you want to sleeve by yourself, dont forget to stretch them before knotting them up.

you need about the same lines for a rev as for a good trickkite so look around in the forum about more tips

sleeved... no doubt there...

as slick as possible is what you need.... smooth lines wil give you the control you need, even after some turns and windings...

I fly my rev on 12 m for light wind, up to 35m for precision and large spaces
indoors even shorter but that is an other mather.
