THE RS IS OUR ULTRALIGHT TOP-PERFORMANCE KITE, PACKED WITH THE MOST INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY FOR THOSE THAT SEEK THE ULTIMATE FREERIDE EXPERIENCE.
- Precision high-tech freeride kite with an ultra-direct feel
- Superior and more durable with lightweight Dynea Tex fabric
- Easy handling with powerful lift and massive hang time
- Ultra-stable light construction efficient even in low wind
- Stiff frame for direct feedback and the optimum response
Pimped to a shiny new level, the RS V2 is like a top-performing racing car that’s light, direct and powerful. Combining the core DNA of the RS with our innovative Dynea Tex material, the RS offers a premium high-performance freeride experience.
Version 2 has been refined even further with more efficient force distribution and an improved yet stable low end. The bar pressure has been reduced while maintaining direct feedback, and the turning characteristics are more harmonised throughout the wind range. The RS V2 has impressive predictability overall and will surpass your flying experience.
Featured uniquely in the RS , our superior Dynea Tex fabric outperforms regular Dacron with a higher tear and tensile strength that is up to 32 times stronger. Dynea Tex is also 30% lighter than traditional Dacron and other normal materials used in inflatable kites. By weaving a complex structure of ultra-strong Dyneema fibres, Dynea Tex is the optimum balance between responsiveness, lightweight and long-term performance.
The XT Light material featured in the struts of the RS has been designed to reduce weight even further. It gives the right amount of stiffness for the frame structure yet will allow enough twist when needed. The increased structural rigidity supercharges the responsiveness in the kite. Less deformation and more direct and precise flying characteristics have been achieved as a result.
Infused with superior materials and technology, the RS will upgrade your session to VIP with exceptional advancement in freeride potential.
Key Changes
- New panel cuts in the canopy distribute force more efficiently
- A new deeper profile allows for an easily accessible and better low end with a more stable kite position in the wind window.
- A more conical LE with increased diameter in the centre and thinner tips. This relocates the twist further outwards and allows a more precise turn that exactly follows the rider's input.
- The wingtip sweep has been further adjusted for a linear load input when turning. These two changes harmonize the turn characteristic throughout the wind range and contribute to the overall impressive predictability of the RS .
- The bridle geometry is adjusted to the new LE diameters and shape to reduce the bar pressure while still maintaining direct feedback.
