2010
OCTANE: The Slingshot OCTANE is the hybrid kite for riders looking for "C" kite performance but more of the depower and range of a BOW kite. Based on the succesful DNA pattern of the REV the 2010 Octane pushes the bar higher still. Excellent choice for surf! This kite is the all rounder and the kite for 90% of recreational riders. Smooth power, fast yet stable.
