Ruben Lented Unbeatable

Ruben Lented Unbeatable!!

*Impossible to defeat or surpass; incapable of being overcome or subdued.*

This is what comes to mind when merging Slingshot international team rider Ruben Lenten and the newly redesigned 2006 Slingshot Fuel.

Ruben Lenten has always been regarded as an exceptional rider. Credits to his resume are 2nd place at Fuerte Ventura World cup 2005, 7th place PKRA Cabarete 2005 and 5th place PKRA Podersdorf, Austria 2005.

Things have radically changed for Rueben now that he rides the NEW ‘06 Fuels.

He has swept 4 victories in a row and credits his success to hard work, support from his community and the work Tony Logosz has done refining the 2006 FUEL. Rueben went from just another rider in the middle of the pack to # 1 almost overnight.
• Red Bull King of the Air Maui Hawaii #1
• PKRA World cup Sardinia Italy #1
• PKRA World cup Isle de la Magdalene Canada #1
• King of the Bay San Francisco, California # 1

*The new Slingshot Fuel is mental I’ve always liked the Fuels but the 2006 Fuel is so much better than the 2005 Fuel that I’m still having a hard time believing that a kite can be this good!

The kite gives me insane top-end range, low-end power, 100% de-power, and bomber construction – everything a top-level rider needs to win Freestyle competitions. It is the best kite I have ever ridden and it has everything I need to win!!!*

The Newly Refined 2006 Slingshot Fuel:
• On-Demand 100% DEPOWER with TRIM
• Low end power and top end range achieved with 5th line TRIM
• NEW 5 Line Performance Bar - reduced bar pressure
• Power Steering Dugout - 25% faster than the 2005 Fuel
• Custom leading edge attachment points - surf, freestyle or wake

Congratulations Ruben for the great victories! Look for Ruben Lenten and his new quiver of 2006 Fuels at the upcoming PKRA event in Brazil November 8th-10th, 2005.

Briskites skate comp

The BrisKites skate comp went off last weekend with some good local talent showing up.

The winner of the olley comp cleared the pole at 60cm.

Our sponsored rider Michael Lawry displayed his skills clearing 90cm however wasn't entitled to enter.

The flatland freeride comp began with some of the younger crew pulling off some big moves and hitting the kicker with gusto.

Lawrey impressed all by grinding the 4' high x 12' long rail.

A good session was had by all.
