The RS is a highly versatile delta-hybrid powerhouse designed for limitless freeride performance and distinctive surf and freestyle characteristics.
/ DESIGN Vision
The highly efficient delta-hybrid design with a medium to high aspect ratio delivers outstanding free-ride performance while enabling riders also to chase waves and pop freestyle tricks. Version 4 is packed with nifty features that enhance the performance even further. The kite delivers more feedback due to the shorter bridle geometry, while the reduced bar pressure minimizes the strain on the forearms. A new alignment of the tip struts decreases drag, resulting in faster fight speed and turning characteristics. They also updated the leading edge wingtip diameter, making the kite quicker to respond to steering impulses. The new ultra-light load diffusers as well as the fully redesigned trailing edge with smart anti-vibration patches, axes unnecessary weight, while improving stability and longevity. The new RS gets everyone psyched in seconds.
