ANFIBIO REVO XL

The Revo XL is part of the Revos concept: the interplay of (lockable) self-bailing, profiled floor and the innovative TwinTailTM. Thanks to the bailing effect (splash water runs off through the bottom), the boats does not require a spraydeck and can also be configured as a lightweight, minimalist single. This results in a unique range of uses from whitewater to touring.

The special constructions correspond to those described in detail with the Revo CL:

• VenturiTube – the closable bailing hose
• TwinTailTM – the V-shaped double tail of a surfboard
• Comfort BackBand – the combination of backstrap and backrest
• 5P ThighStraps – the ergonomically adjustable harness system
• stiff floor mat – the stiff and profiled floor

The construction of the boat with and without the floor mat as well as the different (seat) configurations are analogously to those in the Revo CL or can be taken from the manual which is supplied with the boat. 

Revo XL differences
The XL variant relies on a larger outline. It is 10 cm longer, which creates space and speed. It has a tube diameter of 28 cm, which increases buoyancy and stability. TubeBags* (tube pockets) are available in the Revo XL, which ensures sufficient payload. In addition a stronger floor is used, which is appropriate for potentially high loads. The boat is a good choice especially for large and heavy riders, multi day tours or when extra comfort is needed. In the XL version even large people to a load of 120 kg can sit up entirely without seat directly on the mat.

Two centrally positioned and IPX7 waterproof luggage zippers with directly backed, airtight inner pockets result in a luggage storage space of 70 l each directly in the tube. The system is highly resistant to dirt and wear due to its design because it cannot leak via the zipper. Luggage is automatically positioned correctly and secured against slipping. The transport inside ensures a low center of gravity as well as a protection against moisture.

Paddling characteristics and application
The self-bailer has many advantages in general, including free exit and entry e.g. when transferring, sighting or after a capsize, while it is generally very capsize resistant. The floor mat is designed to fill the interior well, leaving little room for residual water. As a result the raft is very agile and maintains speed in turbulent water, e.g. when catching eddies. Even in massive waves, minimal water gets into the boat because the wide hull and high bow provide plenty of buoyancy. 

This could be interesting e.g. for bikerafters, who prefer an open boat (without spraydeck) due to the bike transport, but are still on moving, splashy water. The Revo XL finds its application in long (and short) ventures with mixed uses such as whitewater (luggage) tours, expeditions and long-distance travel. 

Material, processing, repair
Like all Anfibio Packrafts the Revo XL is made of a special 210/840 urethane nylon fabric which has a high tear and abrasion resistance combined with low weight. The smooth and shiny surface of the tube coating is particularly scratch resistant. Moreover the Revo has an overlapping bottom, which additionally protects the side tubes.
 
All the boat’s seams are fully welded and the tube seams are additionally sewn, making it a completely glue-free construction. This saves weight, costs and the environment! We are so confident with our build that we provide an extended 3-year warranty on materials and workmanship.
 
Of course, no inflatable is indestructible, but in the (unlikely) event of damage field repairs can be made within a couple of minutes with LifePatch. Small pinholes can be sealed with Aquasure, a liquid urethane sealant.
