Here's a video of Eric Rienstra charging hard, riding again on Slingshot gear.  The setup in the video includes him killing the wakestyle with the new 2009 Slingshot RPM kite and Reflex wakeboard.  Good to see some new footage of this stylish rider with his new sponsor.

3-time world champion Martin Vari is releasing his new brand of kite, the Condor One using his name to launch the company forward much like Lou Wainman did recently.  The Condor One is being touted as a kite that can be at home in the flat water or in the surf.  Vari clearly has the goal of having a one kite-fits all mentality for this year's product lineup with a 4-line bridled hybrid offering.
 
Hopefully we'll get to see these kites at the beach this year.  I'm looking forward to testing one.  The graphics are pretty rad too!

The PKRA's decision is based on the following reasons.
