High performance freestyle kite
Designers goals (manufacturer text)
The Vegas is a kite that needs no introduction, for years it has sat at the pinnacle of freestyle riding, powering the world’s best riders to the top of their game. Over the years it has evolved, and it is now much more than just a freestyle kite. Different tuning options allow you to set the kite up for wakestyle and freeride options, as well of course, as freestyle. It has the best pop in the North range, offering extreme height in jumps and powered tricks. The unique feature of the kite is the power delay, after the pop the kite has no power allowing the rider to perform their trick without the kite pulling. Kiteloops on the Vegas are precise and reliable, the kite powers through the loop with plenty of speed. It’s probably the best kite on the market for the rider looking for the freestyle advantage and is used by the entire North Kiteboarding Freestyle Team on the PKRA and in other events around the world. Still, in addition to this, some riders choose the Vegas as their freeride kite, enjoying the lively nature and responsiveness offered.
If you want the most uncompromising high performance and dynamic kite on the market, choose the Vegas.

I believe that the Vegas is the perfect kite for riders who are into the freestyle/wakestyle segment of kitesurfing. The kite has a very direct feeling in the bar which makes it perfect for performing advanced unhooked tricks. Furthermore, I would say the Vegas is probably one of the safer kites on the market. Although it's a C-kite, it has a lot of safety features that a lot of other kites don't have. This makes the Vegas not only suitable for the advanced riders, it is just as versatile as a lot of other kites. The only main difference is that you got a lot more bar feedback and you really know where that kite is in the air.

One session during testing there were gusts up to 40 knots, high end for my weight but on the freestyle setting the kite has a good high end.
If you are looking for a pure freestyle kite, the Vegas is your best choice!
