Slingshot Ranger 12M. Sold!
Unmodified and lightly used light wind powerhouse. This kite comes complete, with a 20" bar and leash. The pictured short pigtails, which I believe
came stock will also be included.
There is no damage, and the kite, lines, and pigtails all look pristine, so I doubt this kite has been flown more than 5 times. I flew it once for
less than 30 minutes, and since its unmodified, it did exhibit the common tip curl issue. I can't recall when I purchased if it was sold as new, like
new, or only used 1-2 times, but I would rate it as a like new kite. Its spent far too long unused in my possession, and it needs to go where it can
be of use.

This kite will be slower turning than modern open cell foils, but once lightly modified, it will be a park and ride light wind machine. I would not
recommend this as a first de-power kite, as its power has been compared to other 15M and larger kites. A review which includes a discussion on the
mods can be found here:

I love the look of these kites. I would love to buy this kite but there is zero need for me to. I would hate to take it from someone that needs it.
I might keep my eye on it just in case.
