i am thinking of buying a slingshot rev 7-9m is there any way to tell a difference between a rev 1&2 by just looking and is there only 08 09 .

hey mate, you can easily tell.
the Rev2 has three attachment points for the rear lines.
the bar looks better, moulded.
theres also quite a few other differences.

Rev1 7m is a sick kite, it gets more use then my 11m Rev.

Hey KAOS. You can try out my 09 9M &/or 13M sometime if you like. Similar to the 08s just a little faster & a better bottom end (imo).
Very different to your fuels !!
pm me to sort it if you want to.

Not so generous really.
Anyone who can make a kite last 5 years has gotta be pretty damn safe
