Hey Kraig!!! I haven't been flying for much more than 2 years (1 practicing tricks) but from what I know and for the budget you have, maybe I would look at a benson or an atelier, also the level one badass are good, any of the previous options would be good choice, maybe someone more expert would know how to give you a more complete recommendation, but here is my contribution :)
I just started building my kite bag!! Kite bag: R-sky Frenezy, Eolo Neox, HQ Jam Session, Eolo Over ventrex, Eolo Over Icarex, Eolo Tango 1, HQ Maestro II and searching for a Nirvana and JoE Talon!

Why would you want to buy a Rev ?! You can do more with a 2 line trick kite than you can with a 4 line Rev. I am selling some stuff at the moment if you are interested but have a sniff around and see what you want first. Buying a decent boutique trick kite used will probably be better than buying something more mass produced like a prism or an HQ kite. Everyone here will recommend a Benson to you but there are loads of options. Good luck and be careful you might get the bug :cool:
