Slingshot Rally 2 Kitesurfing Kite 2012
Price is for Complete (Kite,Bar & Lines)
Slingshot presents one of the most progressive kites in the lineup and is focused to keeps heads turning for 2012. The Rally blends C kite DNA from both our legendary Fuel and RPM, and then mixes the third element of the Delta shaping to create the industry first Open Delta C kite. The Rally and the new Open Delta C kite platform will deliver all the desirable features of a Delta coupled with the performance of a C kite.
The 2012 Slingshot Rally is the top choice for crossover freestyle and surf minded riders.
Proven Delta features such as low end power, responsive pivotal turning, endless lofty hang time, effortless relaunch and unbelievable range are matched with C kite predictable power and uncompromising stability. The three strut design of the Open Delta C delivers smooth efficient power through the stroke and offers a light weight balanced build for maximum flight stability. Our industry first pulley-less bridle lends itself to a direct feel, enhanced responsiveness, and unmatched upwind performance. The range on the Rally has been optimized for maximum low-end grunt. This means riding in lighter wind speeds with smaller size kites and noticeably bigger boost with longer lofty hang times. The stroke at the bar combined with our pulley-less bridle lets you tap into a top end range that translates into complete control when the wind picks. Fine tuning the Rally is easy with Custom Fuel Injection attachment points. CFI alters the overall feel and bar pressure enabling you to tune the kite to meet your personal riding preferences.
New for 2012 will be the addition of a 9 meter for ultimate quiver building potential and added Ballistic Aramid scuff guard reinforcement to prevent wing tip wear.
New Features on the Slingshot Rally 2012 include:
Slingshot Comp Stick Control Bar:
The NEW 2012 Comp Stick control bar eliminates the use of pulleys on the bar and features the NEW patent pending Center Safety System (CSS) which has a new 2012 soft grip and slightly larger diameter to stop forearm fatigue and brings 100% depower safety and convenience below the bar. Slingshot is the only brand to offer complete safety in a 4 line package for added benefit. NEW features such as the Surefire Spinner, Auto Indexing Chicken Loop, Active Stopper Ball and Push Up Centre Safety System makes it the first choice for freestyle riders who demand more. The clean and uncluttered 4 line configuration of the Comp Stick Control Bar also allows for easy and speedy set up.
Open Delta C-Kite Platform:
Giving low end power, responsive pivotal turning, endless lofty hangtime, effortless relauncha and unbelieveable range matched with C-kite predictable power and uncompromised stability.
Surf Proof Seams:
Surf Proof seams makes the kite stronger and more durable. When the kite is dropped in the surf or the shore dump it will withstand the punishment. The seams really tighten up the canopy, which lead to better flying characteristic's, holds its shape better in high gusty winds, and prevents blowouts when dropped in heavy surf.
3 strut design:
Giving a solid feel through all areas of the wind window together with unmatched stability. Maximizes canopy shape integrity through the turns and kiteloops.
CFI Attachment Points:
You can adjust the rear line pigtails (3 options) so that you can ADD bar pressure. If you’re coming from a C-shape kite you will know all about bar pressure and how important it is to be able to feel where the kite is in the sky without having to look at it all the time. The bar pressure adjustment tabs will also help beginners as they will be able to feel where the kite is when in the air. Unlike some brands where the bar is super light and you have to keep an eye on the kite at all times.
Mark Cloth Reinforced Trailing Edge:
Increases durability and aerodynamics by reducing flutter on the trailing edge. This allows for a “clean” exit of air from the canopy which reduces drag.
Features:
Open Delta C-Kite Platform - giving low end power, responsive pivotal turning, endless lofty hangtime, effortless relauncha and unbelieveable range matched with C-kite predictable power and uncompromised stability.
