I've had 6 slingshot quivers. Love the Code kites more than the early Rally's. More versatile than the SST and RPM. Fabulous kite: I've used Rallys, SSTs, RPMs, and Codes. Code is by far the best: goes great upwind, quick to turn, and easy to relaunch. It works well as a boost kite, but i use it in the river waves/swells. I have only used this 10m three times and it's never been in saltwater
