17m 2006 Slingshot Fuel - $75 - SOLD

All,

This kite has a slow leak in the bladder that I have not been able to find. If I can fix it, the price will go up.

I have a 2006 Slingshot Fuel that is in pretty good condition. It has two very small tears in the fabric between the stitching. Since there is stitching on each side of the 2 inch tears, I cannot see how the tears can get any worse. Everything else but the main bladder is in great shape. I have taken all of the bladders out and have glued the valves back on. I think there is a pinhole somewhere in the bladder that I have not been able to find. The bar and lines are original and are in great shape. The bag is also in great shape.

The kite flew great the last time I used it. It was fast and easy to relaunch from the water.

I would like $15 to help with shipping within the continental USA.

Please do not buy this kite if you are a beginner. This is intended for experienced riders who like the feeling of an old school "C" kite.

Thanks,

Jason

Not much use for a C kite for a beginner but the bar alone is worth the price if someone needs a depower bar. Just buy both and sale the C kite to someone else for $30 and your still way ahead.

The bar is 23" long.
