Hey thanks for the inside pics shyster. That's cool but that's definitely not the kite we saw last night. Maybe SS has a couple flats up their sleeves this year eh? Or maybe Tony is just having fun with some crazy batwing designs? 
I guess we can only ponder the possibilities.

| Those lines look short as hell in the last pic... I hope they come with something similar, and that it's just not for "wave" riding!

It has a few more struts to fail than that neon flyer with the limp $%$^ on it(waroo).  hopefully it will be a good one. Best seems to be dominating globally with thier waroo, at least thats what they say.

Oh Hey, that kite looks just like a kite! 
Come on now. This industry is so young that kite design is still converging on the most efficient, highest performance & safest kite design. You have to expect that kites will look more & more similar as they mature.
What it comes down to is: Are the individual kite companies doing the right things when it comes to acknowledging & paying royalties to those that have earned them & behaving responsibly? That is the type of company I want to support & where my hard earned $$’s will go.
My 2-cents, D

Okay now, I really think that thing is just weird looking... Even more so then when I first saw a Crossbow... 
Hope those ridges/points in the leading edge aren't just for looks!

I hear the joints help stiffen the LE. It didn't seem to hinder Lenten from throwing some sick stuff.
But who knows, maybe Logoz is just having a laugh at us clamer for something that may never be. Reminds me of those pics of a crazy looking board John Doyle was on a couple years ago that never went production.
