ULTIMATE PERFORMANCE In its fourth generation, the 2014 Rally is the most versatile kite ever produced. The Rally delivers incredible wind range along with proven high-end performance for freeriding and surf conditions. For 2014 the new Rally is faster, more maneuverable, and offers better low-end power making it the most efficient and user friendly kite in the world. Find out for yourself why so many riders trust the Rally. The 2014 Rally boasts an updated airframe featuring our own unique patented Splitstrut construction making it the most stable kite in the industry. Each size is more powerful and efficient than last year with a new aspect ratio. The Rally features Connect Forward, a breakthrough in attachment point placement that allows the wingtips to twist open to prevent stall. Now riders can easily select from three attachment points to tune the optimum bar pressure for their riding style. We’ve also
advanced our Reflex Wingtip technology by making a larger aerodynamic wingtip. This allows the kite to pivot; balancing faster turning speeds with precise control and stability. Featuring Slingshot’s legendary construction, the 2014 Rally is built better than the rest. With our state of the art manufacturing process combined with top of the line materials you can be assured your Rally will offer maximum durability and peformance. The bomber construction on the Rally focuses on Surf Tough Seams to create more strength and structure throughout the canopy. It also helps to isolate any damage making repair easy. Our Tri-Tech Protection includes Ballistic Kevlar, Mark Cloth, and Neoprene strategically placed in the most vulnerable areas of the kite to optimize durability. We do all of this to make sure you don’t ever miss a session.

T-REX OVERVIEW The 2014 T-REX was developed for a new breed of riders focusing on aerial tricks and fun, poppy changes in direction. This unique, progressive shape is trending in the surf industry with the top pro riders. Patrick Rebstock prefers this next generation surf shape because it makes it easier to spin and flip tricks with less swing weight and has a tight precise feel to blast upwind. Everyday riders will love the shape because it makes it easier to catch waves by reducing the tendency of perling as you drop into your line. Once you’re in the wave, the aggressive 5 fin setup gives you more drive and acceleration without working as hard as a quad or tri fin setup. This unique setup also gives you the option of configuring the fins how you want. Ride it as a tri for a more free, skate feel or as a quad if you’re looking to track more.
The new T-REX is the perfect travel board. The shorter sizes make it easy to take with you to your favorite wave destination and fits in a wider variety of travel bags. Each of the sizes ride like a larger board without the weight and hassle. The single concave makes the board ride super precise, but forgiving for all levels of rider. The tail shape allows for sharp carving in any type of condition. Our entire line of surf boards features art by progressive surfer and artist Phil Goodrich.
