new PL race kite on the horizon? (Vapor2 ?!?)
the german PL team rider nick stimpel is selling all his peter lynn vapors:
http://www.kitestore.de/gebraucht/index.php?entry=20
this leads to two conclusions: either he is selling his set of vapors to be able to buy new shiny PL gear; or he is no longer a PL team rider ??
remember that nick made it to first place in the german buggy race comps:

. The Peter Lynn Vapors dominated the race: Nick Stimpel managed to win, with Sebastian Thomes 2nd and Dominik van Boven 3rd.

can't see him leaving PL ... his last sponsor was U-Turn (which he was with for years)
also no Vapor II yet, but the proto was at NABX last year. so until we start losing to the competition why fix what is perfect already. just saying.
also i noticed the GER teammates are going all custom Black kites.
