If ever there was a kite that needs no introduction it is the Rebel, one of the most popular kites of all time; it is the choice of ambitious freeriders and kiters who like to boost huge airs. It’s perfect for experienced riders and experts alike, offering excellent performance for hooked in cruising and lots of hangtime. For the first time in the Rebel’s history, it can now be flown on 4 or 5 lines. The 5th line is unloaded for 2018, meaning you can decide the best setup depending on your preference and riding style. The turning speed has been enhanced, in combination with a smoother and rounder turning. The wind range has increased. While many changes have been made, one aspect has remained constant; the Rebel is still the ultimate boosting machine offering huge jumps with lots of hangtime and glide in the air! All that with the typical Rebel feel you love so much!

- Faster turning
- Higher jumping
- More float
- Easier to ride
- Better kiteloops
I tried the 7, 9 and 12 Rebel. Normally i ride 7, 9 Vegas and 12 Rebel. This year i chose the 7, 9 and 12 Rebel because i like boosting and looping. For me, this was a very good choice. The Rebel 2018 made my life so much easier now! I am very impressed!
Besides that, the new freeride bar (for riders like me, i never unhook) is great! Much more depower because of the small chicken loop and you are standing in a more natural stance, even when overpowered.
