Slingshot is proud to announce its
second generation RPM. The RPM is changing
kiteboarding with its innovative 3 strut “Open
C” Canopy design. It delivers limitless high end
performance options for all conditions. Excel
your riding regardless of your style. Discover
what the pros already know. The RPM is the
one kite that allows for top performance while
executing un-hooked freestyle, wakestyle and
surf style.
“The kite has a great low and high end range.
For me it is perfect. It has explosive pop for
unhooked tricks. It has massive boost so I have
time for double handle passes or powered kite
loops. The new refinements shine where I can
feel even pull, increased stability, and
forgiveness. Relaunching is also fast and
effortless. The RPM has accelerated me up the PKRA podium.* - *The RPM is the first and only non “C” kite to take a PKRA championship podium finish ever.
New for 2010:
• Our full suspension bridle has been refined to perform in two critical
modes of flight.
A. When the bar is sheeted out, and increased depower and passive stability become desired, performance requirements of the bridle react automatically. This auto adjustment of the bridle allows the kite to take on a latent role by transferring flying loads to the LE.
B. When the bar is sheeted in, the bridle kicks in to what Slingshot kite
designer Amery Bernard calls “Full Suspension Mode”. In this configuration
the bridle is in overdrive. The kite now becomes more, powerful, fast and
responsive giving it an overall feeling that is very intuitive. The bridle can
read and predict your every move.
