Take it back to where you got it from and make them fix it unless they told you about the probs before you brought it.

and do you know how much it would cost to get fixed?

thanks

nah. The guy said to ring slingshot cause they have had lots of problems with the valves.

thanks heaps

There was a warranty issue with some of those kites. The one pump valves come away from the leading edge, the only realistic fix is to replace the leading edge bladder.
Personally I would be trying to get my money back, if thats not possible then call Slingshot, see if they can help you out?

cya and

Goodwinds

This hasn't just been a ss problem it's just easier noticed as they have way more niples.
Slingshot have been really excellent with covering this stuff, I mean it is an 05 kite 2 yrs old and I've heard slingy have covered 04's 3 yrs old with some of this stuff even second hand.
This happens from the kite usually being put away wet and and then getting heated in a car or other place the air turns hot and steamy and can lead to any valve sepparation on any kite. Particularly if repeated over and over..
Anyway good luck with it, try your shop, try slingshot and see how you go never know. :-)

It doesn't matter whether you buy private or from a shop,...
I bought a brand new Slingshot from the importer himself and got screwed...they do that...
They talked up the "link" when i wanted a turboo diesel...they gave me a demo on the link and discouraged the TD.
I ended up buying a link... they gave me one without the red bridle system(only telling me this after I paid for the kite mind you).
It took ages to get the red bridle system replaced...then the kite still sucked. I asked them to take it back...they didn't even want it back!
They said they couldn't sell it....oh how the sales speel changed from one side of the sales process to the other!!!
I'd say to you, the ONLY way to buy is second hand.
You may get done, but it won't cost you as much as buying from one of the ****ers that run the shop.

All I asked for was some service(after sales)but no way did I get any.
