The 2009 Rebel is bashing down the barriers of free-riding and surfing!
The clean, simple 5 line design delivers smooth, reactive steering, extreme resistance to back-stalling when over-sheeted and the most direct bar feedback yet. North’s unique quad strut configuration produces a light weight kite with quick turning and a snappy feel which makes the bigger sizes feel more crispy and lively than ever! The quad strut also helps create a very clean center profile that delivers constant, predictable power for free-ride comfort.The Rebel 09 in my opinion is a kite aimed at People who want a kite that has lots of performance but is easy to fly – Using a small de-power throw will open its potential to Female riders looking for a kite with direct steering but not heavy bar pressure.Although not to my taste is very user friendly in that most people who want a kite to perform well and be used in a big range of conditions will not be dissapointed.
Those with a liking of more freestyle orientatated Kiting- ie: Kite looping, un hooking and Medium bar pressure would suit the New EVO 09 which is an amazing kite bridging the gap between the Vegas and the Rebel.
The Rebel is heavily reinforced with Dacron to take some severe thrashings in the surf and come out in one piece. The combination of decreased weight and a rounder arch helps prevent the Rebel from falling quickly when the lines go slack while surfing making it easier to recover from steering errors.
One pump inflation for added simplicity.
