Revolution 1 (“REV”). $50. This is one of the original OLD SCHOOL. Not a 1.5 version. Kite only. Sail is in great shape. Leading Edge spars (3) are OEM Rev (Ultralight) but verticals are not. Flies just fine. This is a GREAT light wind kite. Mine is pink?


Revolution 2 (“REV”). $50. This is one of the original OLD SCHOOL. Not a 1.5 or B2 version. Kite only. Sail is in great shape. Leading Edge spars (2) are OEM REV but verticals are not. This is a GREAT heavy wind kite. Fun and zippy! I can probably give up some 11” handles and strings if we bump the price accordingly.


Ozone Riot 5m. $200. Kite, bag, strings and handles. I bought this last summer from a PKF member. It is redundant with a kite I bought later (4.5m and 6.5m) so I think it needs to move on. All items are in great condition. No repairs that I can see or know of. $150 if I get to keep the strings and handles.


Prism Hypnotist dual line. $75. Kite only. Flown a dozen times. I bought for $135 thinking it would be a good transition from beginner to advanced flier. However, I jumped right over this kite as my skills progressed. I never really flew it. No damage. I can make a deal for dual lines strings if you need them.


Prism Flip Kite. $10. Weird little quirky single line kite. Good as line-laundry or at the end of a pole. Replacement value $35.


Prism Stowaway Delta. $10. Very small, cute (ick!) delta kite. Comes with a nice storage bag. Used three times as a lark. Great for kids or kickin’ back and watching the sheep clouds float by. Replacement value $30.


Prism 4D. $50. This is the indoor, light wind kite that took the world by storm! Great shape. Flown 20 times. Includes the excellent OEM storage bag/case. Replacement value $100. I can make a deal for dual lines strings if you need them.


Prism Nexus 6-stack (Normal 5 + 1). $200. This is definitely a hard-puller and crowd-pleaser! I have often been teased that I should let it pull me on my buggy! I bought the 5-stack and later another blue Nexus for $60. Includes the bag that allows storage while assembled. Great shape. Light, very minimal usage damage that does not matter. Replacement value is $435 ($375 + $60). I can make a deal for dual lines strings if you need them.


Prism Micron 2011 (?) Berkley Kite Fest Tie-Dye Special Manufacturing edition #15 of #15. $50. Never used. Pulled out of bag once to inspect but never flown or put together. List was $90. Wouldn't you like to own this little slice of history? I can make a deal for dual lines strings if you need them.


Fiberglass & Vinyl hi-back covered spectator seat that would be good for the back of a buggy. $20. Four mounting holes in bottom of seat that use LAG bolts to secure. It is a good little seat that would be fun to see where you could put it.


Kestrel 4000 wind meter and vane. $150. This is the yellow version that retails for $250. Price includes the very cool wind-vane ($60) that allows the meter to be swivel with the wind. Used a dozen times.
Measures current and average wind speed, barometric pressure, altitude, relative humidity, dewpoint, and temperature. It graphs, floats, tells the time, stores 4000 data points, allows data uploads and can be calibrated if desired. This is a GREAT little meter. Replacement value $400.


Premier RC Kite. $170. Very cool! I bought a new motor assembly ($150) a few months ago and have only flown twice. I decided it was best to sell it now before I broke it again! The kite is a delta Box kite that is in good shape. 2.4GHZ 4-channel transmitter with neck harness. Extra motor ($40) included but it is a little too powerful for the kite, mounted on original motor assembly (broken servos and bent servo rods from a crash). Two OEM 11.1V lithium batteries and two Chinese batteries (2X the flight time). Two battery chargers (OEM $50) that are usable but flaky ($10 gets a replacement online). Two Lithium battery fire-bags. More than a dozen propellers and misc other stuff is included. Replacement value is ~$800+. This really is a fun little toy that is ready to fly. My issue is that I am a “POWER!!!!” guy and cannot truly appreciate the joy of a kite just floating around the field.
There are all sorts of other kites that it can attach to if desired. Go to the premier RC site to see all the cool stuff and watch the videos.


Three white, steel buggy rims. $10. Originally had 4.5” x 8” tires on them. Bearings are there but they are not the typical ones that would easily mount to a buggy. This one will need to be seen to understand. Came off of a PCV buggy that a local blind (!!!) guy sold to me. I rode down the street and the PCV fell apart and my butt hit the pavement (I am sure I heard the wife roll her eyes). Wheels were the only thing that survived my girth. I want them to move onto the next MacGyver.




Stuff is all buried for the trip so pictures are not easy.

All these items are going to be present at Red Lake and Ivanpah (Red Tahoe and camper with Colorado plates). Come on by, introduce yourself, and try them out. Either trade or sell off-site as required. I think the prices are good…if you disagree, let me know!

For those of you not able to make it out to XBAN we can discuss shipping once I return.

I'm with Van on those old revs! Bought my first in 1997ish! Burried somewhere here haven't seen it in a few years

Trying to SELL IT ALL at XBAN

Thanks to all the people that sent private emails saying "I want XXXX, what is the cost to send to the North Pole?"

Some of these items are a great deal. I decided a price and then said "What is the cost of NOT boxing, shipping and dealing with Paypal worth?"

The answer was that I went back and reduced the cost to what I would pay for each item and know that I got a good deal.

$50 for a classic REV that sold many times at Auction for over twice that? Yup...I'd buy that!

So...thanks again for the offers. I hope the XBAN people take advantage of me dragging this stuff across country!

I am now at Red Lake
