Quad Line Kites

Quad line kites are my favourite - I find myself flying these more than anything else, especially the Revolutions:

Revolution Style Kites

Revolution 1.5 SLE (Custom) : My first attempt at kite making (January 2003) and upgraded with the 'official' SLE spars (now in it's 4th revision).
Revolution 1.5 Vented (Custom) : A vented version of the Revolution 1.5 to allow flying in higher winds (now in it's 2nd revision)
Revolution 1.5 SUL (Custom) : A new custom sail for the lightweight Revolution (now in it's 2nd revision)
Freedom 2000 : A French version of the Revolution design (April 2004)
Revolution Shockwave : The first of Revolutions Speed Series kites - faster and more powerful (April 2008).

Synergy Deca 1 : Guildwork's Synergy Deca. An unusual 3D shaped kite, with different flight characteristics to a Revolution
Synergy Deca A1 : A smaller version of the Deca 1 that flies in higher winds
Synergy Deca (Custom) : My home ade Synergy Deca (made in May 2003).
Synergy Black Deca (Custom) : Another lighter and larger homemade Synergy Deca for lighter winds.

Papillon (Custom) : Didier Ferment's Papillon quad line kite (made in March 2003). In some ways similar to the Synergy Deca, but with a different feel.
Kwat (Custom) : The Kwat from 'Stunt Kites to Make and Fly'. A small, fun kite, but with a limited wind range.
Freevol LX : A French designed symmetrical quad line kite (August 2004).
Inter Active Kites Skydancer : An unusual British designed quad kite that changes shape in flight (January 2009)
Benson Airbow : The 'official' 3D Airbow from Benson Kites & Andy Wardley (July 2009)
Spectra Solution : An unusual externally framed American quad kite (September 2009).

Revolution EXP [Retired] : The Revolution kite. The entry level Revolution and was my first quad line kite (May 2001). This original kite has long since been retired (although the spars are still in use in one of my custom Revolutions).
Revolution 1.5 SUL [Retired] : The low wind (files from zero mph) version of the Revolution (February 2002). The leading edge spars and handles are still in use with the current Revolutions..
Lidl Quad [Sold] : A very cheap quad from the Lidl Supermarket (July 2008). This never flew especially well for me and was sold a number of years back.
Airbra (Custom) [Retired] : The Airbra, my homemade version of the Benson Airbow (January 2004). It never worked quite as well as the official version.
