I've read in several places that when you purchase a Revolution Speed or Power kite that it comes with a case?  Anyone have a picture of this case they mind sharing? Thanks |

the shockwave/supersonic/blast came with a heavier duty cordura bag that had a webbing handle at the half mark and two mesh slide in pockets on the side.. i have a couple of them for single line kites and they work phenomenal as a quick grab and fly bag...

yeah, what I thought. The color looks like a standard 1.5 sleeve but I'm sure the material is beefier like for the b series.
I wonder why places call it a 'case'?

Thanks for that thief.
I'm hoping he loads a pic because I'm interested for sure.

You can tell by the sleeve/case/bag when a kite was shipped from Rev. Pretty much. The flipflop bags was the latest and the wide red jb series before that.  |

Does it have the same pockets on the outside as the other rev bags? I can't tell
On my phone that is.

Revolution has changed the bags that they are now shipping the kites in. The new bags are a soft printed sleeve that is very lightweight and printed with the model of Rev and colors. These bags have started coming to market in the last 2-3 months and have replaced all other bags previously used. They have a draw string on the top and no longer have pockets on the outside.
This should make it much easier to identify your kites when in the roll-up bags without having to pull each one out of its sleeve to see what it is.

Well, hopefully the one SKB is offering isn't like that and has the pockets.
