No problem at all - you feel always safe with this kite. My top speed: 86 km/h. Like my old Rally. But the Machine turns faster, pulls me better through turns and goes better upwind. A Rally on steroids
I have riden Slingshot kites for 10 years, recently just changed to the Orbit 2022 , but dying to try the machine. It always surprised me how the original Rally was killed since it was such a good jumping Kite. Some say the Core XR was inspired in that shape.
I look forward to hearing your comments! And welcome me to the forum
I've seen Lewis's pictures on Internet with him on the podium (first place). Is that Max Tullet who finished second ?skyte wrote: ↑Wed Dec 01, 2021 1:23 amI ended up in the semi finals against Lewis Crathern who had just got back from KOTA in SA. Best seat in the house was boosting huge airs watching Lewis shredding I was out of my league but it was the best buzz I've had on a kite for a long long time! Lewis was also on his 8m and doing some insane megaloops... He was on a 10m at KOTA which gives you an idea of how windy it was.

It's the same in name only. Different kite altogether. Different designer, different profile, different construction, different shape, different bridle style, different everything. To call it V2 would be a bit misleading as V2 would suggest some kind of progression from one to the other.
Yes! and Ned Taylor 3rd. Those guys were fearlessly ripping.Baptiste_FR wrote: ↑Wed Dec 01, 2021 10:23 amI've seen Lewis's pictures on Internet with him on the podium (first place). Is that Max Tullet who finished second ?
The boost does remind me of that Ozone Edge (can't remember which version) that had insane lift... you always just kept going up more than expected. I might be wrong but I thought one particular year was insane and after that they dialled it back a little bit?I have riden Slingshot kites for 10 years, recently just changed to the Orbit 2022 , but dying to try the machine.

Big question is how good is it for big air!? Shape wise it reminded me of the Ozone Edge which is a hang time machine. Can anyone give any input in its jump capabilities.
