Exactly Mark. Where I'm at now in Argentina Naish and Cabrinha are basically the only kite's flying. Slingy's didn't even get discussed until the Rev came out and now I get asked to bring them on every trip. I did donkey in a few new 09 LF Havoc's for some friends because import taxes are just brutal. We bitch about pricing but many people around the globe are giving a kidney to push the stoke.        Northwest Kiteboarding -> Gorge / Portland / Oregon Coast All times are GMT - 8 Hours Page 1 of 1   Jump to: Select a forum Northwest Kiteboarding Discussion Forum----------------Gorge / Portland / Oregon CoastFor SaleLost & FoundIndustry SoapboxCGKA  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum You can attach files in this forum You can download files in this forum
