Re: Ben Wilson announces his new Brand

No disrespect to Ben or any other pro rider developing his own "brand"...but instead of creating new brands, how about just buying one of the exisiting brands and making it yours. Like Dimitri, why come out with Epic Kites, when its really just a slightly tweaked and relabeled Blade Kite? (Seriousl...

Re: Slingshot 2011

That LE is really thin on the Rally for a Delta. Can anyone comment on the 12 Rally compared to the Octane 13? I mean: Bar pressure, turning speed, bottom end, top end, speed, boost? Did you guys tweek the larger sizes for better bottom end while focusing the smaller sizes at good top end? If the Ra...

Re: Slingshot Octane - Any good?

Yeh fair enough, I concur with those comments. The reason i got moore boost from the Octane was the better top end. To be honest tho, I never had any issues flying the link either but it was useless in the hands of a novice, so fair enough if some have had troubles. I couldnt be happier with my Occy...

Re: Slingshot Octane - Any good?

I think what slingshot missed with the high Rev1 sales was the price. The Rev was cheap, much cheaper than say Naish or North freeride kites and it sold well. The Rev2 was much more expensive so I figured, why pay extra for some extra attachment points and kept my revs. With the hype of a new kite w...

Re: 2010 Underground FLX

I haven't heard of anyone ever breaking a FLX since they started using a paulownia core. Yeh, well......I have That said tho, I've seen many other 'indestructable' boards break too. I had the 08's and absolutely loved them but had to go for something a bit stronger. I still miss my 132 tho. Best bo...

Re: 2009 Slingshot Rev bridle issue

Guys, make sure you check what series Rev it is. The Rev1 did this a fair bit but slingshot will supply spare P-line free of charge. Well they do in Australia. The Rev2 did not do this often. My Octanes have not twisted the P-lines yet (fingers crossed). The Rev, Rev2 and Octane all have different l...

Re: Slingshot Darko???

So where will the Darko fit in the slingshot lineup? Between the darkside and the Lunacy? Honestly guys, the new stuff looks great but is all this extra crap on a kiteboard really necessary?? Its like those Cabrinah Syncs. They looked great at first but were a heap of crap when I followed the hype a...
