hi there,
i am woundering if anybody is able to tell me the length of the throw on the slingshot link 12m. Reason being is because i broke mine and i threw it out (stupid idea)....... and now that i have brought a new rope it is to long and i dont no how short to cut it....... so if anyone can get me the measurments it would be very helpful.
cheers

Hey dodgy59 sorry it took so long to reply been busy here in newy.
So the rope length for any of the links 07, 08 fuel, 08 rev is 154cm from the top of the peanut with cleats to the end of the rope.
You also need to set the chicken loop stopped ball at 51cm up the rope from the top of the bar. This is so you cannot over sheet out the kite and cause it to luff..
Hope this helps you back onto the water fast, hope you enjoy your kite and have fun.
:-)
