Revolution Design 1992
The second Rev 1 design that Jørgen did for the team was done alongside the design for four rokkaku kites in preparation for a trip to the USA. The first venue was Denver, the second Lubbock.
We were hoping to have a set of this design re-made in 2020 in the 'Zen' format. They finally arrived in March 2022.

Additional sails as from original set 1992
This project was started immediately after the Portsmouth event in 2019.
There were delays in obtaining materials due to shipping issues amongst other things. Special thanks to Martin Lester and Randy Tom as well as Revolution for helping us realise this project.
Cervia 20th April - 1st May 2024
A good session with six fliers... on the 1992 design by Jørgen Møller Hansen in the Not Zen format.
Ashley leading Jim and Lynn Foster, Philippe, David and Chris.
Following on from 2022 another attempted flight of the stacked 1992 Rokkaku sails and the 1992 Rev design in Not Zen format by Jørgen Møller Hansen.
It was a short flight as the windspeed was not quite sufficient to keep the stack in the air.
Images thanks to Franca.
An arena flight close to the end of the event.

Rok'n'Rev 1992 - 2022, Original Roks by Jørgen Møller Hansen from 1992 (Red sail re-made) and new Rev sails in the 1992 design modified for the 'Not Zen' sails.
The project to revisit the 1992 Rok'n'Rev kites to 'celebrate' the 30th anniversary was initiated immediately after the 2019 Portsmouth event and the replacement Rok sail and the sets of Revolution sails arrived in London on 28th March 2022, just in time for Cervia!
The plan was to fly the stack of four Rokkaku kites as a target for the Revs but the wind conditions were not quite right for a tethered launch on 28th April.
