In 1990/91 we approached Revolution Kites and they agreed to make us a set of custom Rev 1 sails to a design by Jørgen Møller Hansen. We think that this may have been a 'very early' example of custom designs for Revolution sails!

In 1998 a new set of Rev 1 sails were made using the original graphic.

Blackheath 17th February 2008.

Jørgen gave us permission to use his design again, for two 1.5 sails sewn by Martin Lester and finished by Bazzer, which were raffled for the benefit of The Bristol Kite Festival 2009. (one yellow and one blue)

Bristol 2009 Raffle sails

Rich Comras won the blue sail which Alden Miller has returned to The Decorators in October 2021 saying that before passing Rich told him of his kites, "you will know what to do with them".

(The yellow sail is with Ben D'Antonio as at 16/12/2022.)

This original 1991 sail was found along with three sails in the 1992 graphic.

The original bridle was not configure for equal length lines and included a swivel at the line attachment point.

The original sail was printed with the Revoultion logo in pale green. The replacement sails that were made in 1998 had an appliqued logo.

Original sails, flight location not known. Images added 2nd September 2024.

The original sails had the logo in the middle panel. When the kites were re-made the logo was on the left side of the sail.

The stack of the 1991 and 1992 sails had been slightly reconfigured again, the spars in the last two kites have been replaced.

It was a bit gloomy today compared to 20th March 2022 but great to get the stack configured ready for Cervia Artevento 2023.

Thanks to Marian Linford for the images.

The stack of the 1991 and 1992 sails had been slightly reconfigured and flown today with the two 1992 Rokkakus, also in train.

The stack of the 1991 and 1992 design sails was flown as a first fix today.
