Here we go, yes we have them too. 9mtr & 11mtr available for demo anytime. Expecting wind Sunday, so they will be on the water with a few local boys at Castaways, so drop by and ask for a ride.
Bar, pump and tuning changes look awesome. Haven't had a ride as yet, but hopefully will fly this arvo, if it gets hot enough and we pray heaps, maybe even get a NE seabreeze to get a ride at the beach, tides wrong for the mouth bummer.
interested, just call in an take it for a fly.
Have Fun!

SAVE THE 11M FOR ME TOMORROW, IF WINDS IS STRONGER THEN KEEP THE 9M FOR ME!!!!!!!
ah, the P-lines have changed! bonus (if I am seeing right in the one picture)!
Sorse - are the REV2 P-Lines similar lengths to the REV1? I would like to try the thinner / 'harder' P lines on my Rev 1. [I can just see the bad jokes coming].
Also the bar looks to have done away with the prone to peel off rubber around the ss logo... nice. Hopefully the chickenloop slot is also wider at the top to reduce line wear.
Hey we have got them in now! 11m and a 9m for demo. Stock will be arriving late September in limited numbers then the next shipment will be end October, so if want to get your hands on one of these babies to try out or want to secure your new seasons kite , make sure you get you get your name on the demo list or the pre order list to avoid disappointment.
Ok where is the wind.

some pics of the Rev2 11mtr at the beach on Gold Coast
Thanks Surf FX for the Demo
This would have to be the easiest kite I have ever used.
Easy kite looping machine.
Relaunch is one of the best I have seen on a kite makes the Naish Helix look like they made that kite to punish people.
You know where this kite is at all times.
It is fast and very controlled.
Super fast turning kite.
This is not a lazy mans kite this is a true performer.
I can't fault it the bar set up is so easy and simple to use.
I can't see any tangle that would occur. The aluminium hole for the chicken will look after the rope for sure and for what its worth $26 to get a new one who cares. The loops at each side of the outside lines allow you to relaunch the kite with comfort just pull on one so much nicer then grabbing a hand full of line.
Hi guys flew the 11mtr on sunday in the surf at castaways beach in about 10-15 knots, had both the new & old rev there. Love the bar line, it feeds through much easier than last years model. Bar feels good in your hands, bar pressure was light stability in air was definantily better. Still fast in the air & turns quick too, I thought it was a little gruntier than last years, but not everyone agreed with me so have too ride it more
Relaunch still very good, self-lands well. Build quality is your typical Slingshot kite, nice and sturdy. Cuts upwind well from what i could tell in the conditions, give you some more feedback after i ride it more
If you want to give it a shot or the 9mtr give me a call or email me for more details, if the winds up ill be down the beach anyway.
Have Fun

Hey guys rode the 13m the kite, I moved the rear lines forward I was able to hit my passes no worries. Plus I could edge the kite more like a C it didn't race forward in the wind, it sat back a bit and gave nice pop. Felt very solid and stable 13m on a 15kn day or less.. My weight 80kg..
Plus got out on the weekend on the 9m rev at swansea and it was 20-25 with gusts over 35. The new 9m was easier to hold at the top end then last years model very surprisingly so. As I changed kites with a mate and I was getting lifted on his just standing there, getting back on the rev2 and I had no problems, had kite on the middle settings at the back. I'm unsure weather this setting may have given the kite more range or not. I have alot more testing to do..
Big coment I got was the bar is definetly alot better from all those who rode it. Both the grip and the hole in centre..
Relaunch is so simple and so is the safety system..
