SLINGSHOT RPV V1 KITE REVIEW
“The F-One Bandit XV is all about the sensation of power control.”
SUMMARY:
If you want to shred every situation possible with maximum comfort and feeling of control, get an RPX. The relationship between lift, pull, turning, stability and hooked-in or unhooked performance is just beautiful. Plus, we really noticed an impressive improvement in how the kite can drift – an excellent bonus for wave riders. This 9m is going in the Cape Town quiver bag!
