Kiteboarding Video: Slingshot #RPMisWHAT:Youri
Youri Zoon on the 2016 Slingshot RPM
The Slingshot RPM has been the powerhouse and championship kite since 2009. Youri Zoon, recent competitor in the IKA World Championships, gave his two cents in this latest #RPMisWHAT video.
“For me, to come back to Slingshot is like returning home from a travel,” Zoon said. “We have a lot of history together and I’m very excited to add more to it. Slingshot is the ruler of quality, innovation and performance. I’m thrilled to be back to my roots and back on the kite that had such a big impact on my career. The RPM was an amazing kite when I left off, and it has only gotten better since. In just a short time back on the RPM, I've already gained a lot of confidence in being able to push myself, and my gear, harder than ever."
