Who cares... Ride what ya wanna ride and YOUR happy with bro. Everyone has different opinions, mine is different too martyns for example. Personally I think the cabs are great value for money...I like the switchblades cause they are a good allrounder in both surf and freestyle/wakestyle. I think with c's you can be a little limited with the amount of wind you can ride in it's sweet spot... But hey I can guarantee someone will shoot massive holes in my opinion and tell ya something else, gotta love seabreeze :)

Ol mate Joyrider was frothing to me about all the new gear - I am with him. This year there seems to be an abundance of choice. One thing for sure though- for me it'll be the one kite for all conditions and the skimboard when it's light unhook on the twinnie in the middle and old school boosting when it's goin off! Aaaaaah yeah- roll in the warm weather and seabreezes ....

Just skip the hype, buy a second hand cab or ss kite both seem to be popular, but people cant wait to get rid of them over 140 of each in the buy and sell. It is a buyers market.

Lots of kites look to have the goods this year, no point being a sheep following the pack when there are so many options this year that are going to be better. Demo as much as you can.

I don't ride a kite or board because of the graphics..... it could look crap but as long as it does what I want I'm happy. If it rides well and looks great then thats a bonus. I'll have the Slingshot Fuel and Rally kites soon for you to try as well as the Lunacy, Darkside, Scud and Tyrant boards. This should cover the Slingshot range for you....
