Re: Slingshot rpm 2012
RPMs come out usually only in Jan/Feb. the 2011 model is on the market only for couple of months, don't expect new one too soon.
But looking at 2011 vs. 2012 changes on Fuel and Rally, I would not expect any real changes. New sizes would be nice.

The best thing that could happen to the RPM 2012 when it will be released next January is to stay un-changed!

CHANGE: Add a 7M to the lineup!
UNCHANGED: Continue to include a pump in the complete package! (My 2012 Rally didn't come with a pump...geez, increase the kite price by $10 and keep the pump as part of the package.)

Re: Slingshot rpm 2012
Please tell me that they made a mistake by not adding the pump......or are SS not supplying pumps with their kites now?CaptainArgh wrote:CHANGE: Add a 7M to the lineup!

A seven would be great to go with my 10RPM and (light wind weapon) 12m Rally!-

Re: Slingshot rpm 2012
Yeah, it just makes sense. Seems a lot of companies snug up all the kite sizes on the low end and then open them up for the big kites.lucie wrote:+1CaptainArgh wrote:CHANGE: Add a 7M to the lineup!
For some reason, with my weight and riding style the 6 is always just a little too small as my high wind kite and the 8 it too big. 7M? Perfect!

The reason they don't add a 7: then you'll be buying one kite less...CaptainArgh wrote: For some reason, with my weight and riding style the 6 is always just a little too small as my high wind kite and the 8 it too big. 7M? Perfect!
