Slingshot REV
 

http://youtube.com/watch?v=OiKY8S9HGFs Looks pretty sick! I hope they come out intime for next season. What does everyone think?

not a big fan of the 5th line...

I wonder why they didn't call it the Link II ? Have they announced a release date for the "Red Bridle" for this version? After 24 months of development after releasing it to the public maybe it is right. Will they give you any trade in value for your Link or Turbo diesel?...... No No really we promise it is a good kite this time... I know we said that last time but we really mean it now... Trust us with your $1500 and place your order today!

i dont think its a 5th line i was reading some stuff on kiteforum and they said 4 line. And yeah Bob thats what i was thinking lol if its a repete of the link then im not to intrested. id like to demo one to see how it rides.

idk what else that could be? i know the chicken loop line isn't that long. idk looks like a system similar to the 5th line.. to cluttered for me... i just hate having a line right there


also why'd they have such a sh**y rider in the video? cmon now slingshot

hahaha! i said the same damn thing

No, it's a 4 line but depowers like a 5th line... ie: it falls out of the sky like a bomb when you let go of the bar. For a kite with limited depower (old C kite) this was better than a suicide leash, but on a modern kite I'd rather it stay in the air for 5 seconds (depowered) until I can get to the bar than crash down into the middle of the riding area.

I guess you could put a suicide leash on it instead.....

I hope the kite is as good as the riders who are on it... if it is it's probably pretty good although that is the one of the ugliest biggest chicken loops I have ever seen.

What do ya think about this "delta c shape"...

Its a 4 line kite. Will do a demo as soon as the wind comes back. You can make your own mind up then. Mine already is. Cheers Neil

sounds good Neil
