Hi I'm an intermediate rider who is looking to start wave riding and jumping.
I have an opportunity to buy one of these quivers.
07 Slingshot T2 quiver.
08 F-One Bandit Quiver.
Just wondering if anyone know which would be better.
I am leaning towards the F-one bandits but am not sure just yet.
Both quivers are used, 3 kites with one bar in great shape.
The T2 quiver is cheaper
Any tips or info would be great
Thanks
If you go the Bandit you will only need two kites & think 07 / 08, dose that reflect there condition?
I've never flown the Slingy T2's admittedly, but I did have a Bandit quiver last year and think that if I was you that would be the way I would go. Don't know what sizes you are looking at but I had 7.5, 9 and 13. They are a good stable, grunty, easy to relaunch kite that you will progress heaps on.
Lots of this years kites are starting to resemble the Bandit delta shape and they hold the world speed record (or at least they did, I am not sure if they still do) so they must have done something right.
Check the struts if you do go for the Bandits some of the first generation 08 Bandits had some issues with the strut stitching splitting near the leading edge.
This year I just replaced the one that I used most, the 9, with a new 10 Dos and whilst the Dos has a couple of small tweaks (mainly to the struts and bridles) there is not a lot of difference from original 08 Bandit really.
