Welcome to the forum.
We dont do kite brand vs kite brand threads on this forum. It's just starts arguments, everyone thinks the kites the kites they fly are the best. Try demo'ing them or maybe post on kite forum.
Slingy is in HR now pm shymac for a demo
Best kites??? - New Wind in HR has them not sure if they do demos.
Before you buy any gear take lessons...trash their gear first...plus a great way to find a kite you like. |

| what Betty said, but the quick answer is the REV2 is not a beginner kite, its a little too fast. |

Yeah, the REV is for sure the super awesomeness. But I'm not sure how beginner friendly the kite is. The waroos however do have stupid colors and there is the fact that, when was the last time BEST kicked down money to finance any of the events in the gorge?
BOG, blowout, slider fests, NWkite party.... Ummm, like never? |

Sooooo true! Gotta give it up for the folks at Slingshot for always being generous and supporting ALL of the events in the Gorge.
As far as the which kite is the best, my lips are sealed!..... Demo bro! Demo! |
