We use only RRD here in PR. Killer school boards and kits.

We use wipika NSK kites and free air's for the bigger sizes. We are not a wipi dealer but the kites are the most stable in all conditions (light winds especially) and last the longest than any we've found to date.

Will be using GTO's, fuels, Rhino 2's, Toro 2's and psycho for this year, but since the water is still frozen, can't give any more feedback except the slingshots were great last year. No problems and no repairs needed. North and Flysurfer are new for this year. Will keep you posted though once the water gets softer. :)

Do you think the mark cloth of slingshot will stop the tear in the rip stop.
and make it easier to repair.
