1:1 or 2:1 ?
I have flown it in 2:1 only and found its stability and steady pull nice but way too slow and too much bar pressure. How is 1:1?

Showed up and wasn't planning to demo anything but the wind was dying. Demoed the 15 Rev which I have been trying to avoid because I didn't want to know what I was missing out on.

Super cool. Shymac gave me a launch and I rode it out for a while. the bar setup that they have really is top. I'm not saying anything new here but the kite even a 15m turns on a dime and the bar is super easy to adjust...

Now that I know what I am missing out on I'm gonna have to find a way to come up with the bucks for a new kite. The Rev is sick!

Thanks for letting me ride, the launch, and the no pressure attitude. Basically the whole thing when like this.

"Hey can I demo a kite?"

"Sure."

After coming back in...

"What did you think?"

"It was awesome."

Thanks again for the demo and the super laid back attitude.

The slingshot crew has always been very cool to people and always willing to help when they can. Josh, you should try a 9m REV, you'll end up prostituting yourself for the cash to get one of those babies.
