He probably made a >confusion with the QuadTrak ? As I remember there _was_ a kite called a Quadra Flex, but it was _not_ made by Skynasaur.. It was a framed 4-line kite that came out shortly after the Rev I (originally called the Neos Omega) hit the market, and was made by Ted Dougherty who at that time owned Kite Innovations.. The folks at Revolution felt that the Quadra Flex was too much like the Neos Omega and sic'd the lawyers on KI, and the kite disappeared from the market.. As a result, it's quite a collectors item.. It flew very nicely, and would do some things like inverted slides a little easier than the Rev.. Ted is the designer of the Quad-Trac and is currently hooked up with Skynasaur who is building the QT.. If anyone has a Quadra Flex in a dusty corner of their kite bag and would consider parting with it, give me a yell.. -- Dan Rubesh GO Wind Wizard windwiz@coyote.rain.org FLY A P.O.

Skynasaur used to make what they called a STUNTFOIL. I phoned them last summer and was told that the kite is no longer manufactured due to a lack of demand. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Date: Mon, 20 Mar 1995 01:20:40 -1000 From: cyuen@rogers.com Message-Id: <95Mar20.142439est.29490@janus.rogers.com> Organization: Harvard University Office of Information Technology Subject: Re: Quadra Flex by Skynasaur ???? >Do you know something about this kite ? A friend ask me questions about >this kite but I really don't have any ideas. He probably made a >confusion with the QuadTrak ? As far as I know, Skynasaur have never made any type of 4-line kite. However, Quadraflex was the name of an early 4-line Rev-type kite that was put out by Kite Innovations (same people who made the Quadrafoil) about half a year after the Rev first came out (somewhere around '90). Revolution claimed patent infringement, and they stopped production. It looked like a cross between a normal Rev and a bow-tie.
