Epic Session in Waves,NC with Dimitri -

The Epic truck pulled up and we had an impromptu demo at our vacation house just north of the Real Slick. Winds were close to 30, and water temps were getting towards the upper 60's.

Perspective of the Screamer from a girl's point of view: In just a few words... the Screamer is powerful....incredibly responsive, and relaunches immediately. It packs a punch, but never feels out of control. I'm an intermediate kiter, who's ridden several different brands of kites over the last few...

One question with the 12m around 2:15 into the video the thing falls out of the sky but flat (lines went loose), then repowered dead into the window, from my little experience, the kithe should have veered and plunge LE first away from you for a classic back line relaunch. Why did that thing not dr...

I have been able to get out on the Epic Renegade 9m, and the Screamer 9m and 12m. I made a video yesterday of the 12m and 9m in action http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WaKgUhffThI 12m Screamer 20mph http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vtWJSd99jM 9m Screamer 25mph (Note, I am no Dimitri, and weigh in at ab...

I have watched that video. Awesome vid. I actually just bought a 2008 session 9m to add to my 12m. I cant imagine flying a 16m. Does it depower like you would expect? The kite depowers really well... and is very stable when depowered. Since it has a full bridle along the leading edge, it really kee...

I think the session is a good free ride kite for beginners to intermediate. 90% of the kiting population would peak out on skill before the kite held them back. That being said, I had a great first session on the 2008 16m session recently and filmed it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxAX7_fPIIA I a...

I heard the reason several kite companies were not including clips was because of a one pump patent --- ie.. a potential lawsuit from Slingshot... if the onepump technology was not licensed.. Ie.. Slingshot sues companies that have one pump systems with clips on the hoses.... but remove the clip... ...

Size for size probably the Freak Dog EZE 13m...

Comprable power to many other 16m SLE's but still turns like a 13m..

The Thruster is the most C-shaped SLE I have seen.... I wonder how it would run as a C-kite with some modifications..

No question, I love this kite..... might make an awesome non SLE kite.... but for me.... I don't have any reason or desire to go that route..
