Anyone receive their Waroo yet? What size. I've lots of different shipping dates. Late February for 9 and 12. Early to mid March for 20.

Only normal production orders. No prototypes, no test riders.

Doesn't sound like early 06 to me. Nuts. I guess I'd rather they get production correct before they release them prematurely.

Then you need to communicate with your sales team. I just spoke (online chat) with Brandon and he said "Late March" for delivery of the 9Waroo. He also assured me that the Waroo bars would be available when the kites are available.

doesn't the date depend on when you put the order in? so maybe all of this is correct, just for different people, or for those who have not yet ordered.

Not exactly.

The 20 was still in development while the 9 was in prerpoduction....so I was told.

The smaller sizes were finalized first and put into production while they still wanted to test the larger sizes further. So I don't think it matters when you ordered.

I think I ordered my 20 the week or two after the press release, but that's not going to speed up my order. I ordered the 9 after someone stole my 10 "c" two weeks ago.

Stealing sucks.

so it depends on the size and the order date...

if the first shipments of 9 is sold out, pretty obvious that order date matters
