Subject: Quad-line Handles.

Ok, this is severely bending, if not breaking the rules of this group...
This posting can be viewed 2 ways, either informing potentially 
interested parties of an opportunity, or just a straight ADVERT !, but 
since this is a restricted offer to readers of this newsgroup, I will 
post it anyway...

I am manufacturing a batch of Quad-line Handles. These are NOT the same 
as any other I have seen, but are more similar to Quadrafoil handles 
than Revolution handles. I have been careful to avoid making a copy of 
any other commercially available product.

I make 2 models, the standard is 300mm (12in) long, with short leaders.
The long version is 400mm (16in) with long (2mtr) leaders. These are 
specifically designed for buggying, if anything gets wrapped around your 
wheels or axles, it will be the leaders, not your flying lines.
Both are gold anodized alloy with black foam grips and colour coded (red 
and blue) leaders. Obviously a description alone cannot do then justice.

These handles are best suited to soft foils intended for power, because 
the diameter of the foam grips allow you to take a firm hold. While 
still satisfactory for 4-line stunt kites, they are more chunky than REV 
style handles, and are not quite as easy to just hold by the fingertips. 

The retail price from me is as follows:
Standard handles:	15 pounds incl P&P within the UK
Long handles:		17 pounds incl P&P within the UK

If you are interested, send me e-mail at "travell@comics.enet.dec.com"
I will reply with the address to send your cheque by snail-mail. 

Any orders from outside the UK will need to cover the extra cost of 
international parcel post.

They are also available via the kiteshop web page :

	http://www.kiteshop.co.uk/

or from the "Ocean Kites" shops in the UK, obviously at whatever price 
the shops choose to charge.

Other trade enquiries will be more than welcome.


	John Travell.
