Hi, I'm a Slingshot fan. I love them and I'm currently in a bad situation. I'm in love with my Cabrinah Switchblade. She is my lover. I lover her.
The Cabrinah 9mtr. flies perfectly.

Which Slingshot kite flies most like the Cabrinah Switch blade?

Please help me!!

Aloha,
Ron

What about the SST.

Does anybody who flies the SST have any experience flying the Cabrinah Switchblade?

I fly the Rally's and RPM's and they are distinctly wonderful. The Rally does not fly like the Switchblade in my opinion.

What is the Raptor?

Why would you leave your lover Ron? Sometimes you have to give credit to rode hard and put away wet vs new and unknown.

Every kite model has a honey size, 9m might be the one for Switchblade, if it aint broke dont fix it.
For me the 11m RPM is magic!

That shape looks much closer to Switchblade than any other SS kite - will have to try it out some day.

The Raptor is coming. It looks like a Cab Switchblade mated with a SS Rally. The canopy looks GOOD! Shocked

I can't wait to get one....
