Hi Guys
Been riding for just over a year atleast every week , tide and wind dependant of course.

I've just upgraded my kahoona quiver to a new Rpm quiver.

My question is the sizes don't seem to correspond eg: the 10rpm seems a hell of a lot bigger than the 9.5 kahoona
And the 8 also seems bigger than my previous 7.5 kahoona .

I apologise if this is a stupid question , but could anyone shed some light on this topic ?

I'm not talking about slingshot sizing for 2012- 2013 with regards to the 12m

Cheers fellas

Shame the RPM doesn't have one more size above the 14, say a 16 or 17.

Yep I would buy an RPM 16-17 for sure. Shame they don't make them.

It wouldn't be efficient enough. We have a near new 17 Turbine going cheap. That's what you need for the light stuff

The RPM is a hell of a lot more high aspect and flatter than the Kahoona which is why it looks so much bigger. It's longer and flatter in the sky making it look bigger (queue jokes).
