That finger flip is the coolest trick I have ever seen with a kite! |

Has any of you guys have had the chance to try the Rebel? just by the look on the mags and videos looks like a sweet ride.
For sure you guys will get it first up there so any info will be appreciate it.

Cool Video. I've been lucky and had the chance to ride Rebel prototype 10's recently. The kite rips beyond belief. The range is impressive. When the average kite size is 7 to 9, I am comfortable on the 10. When guys are on 12's and 13's I use the 10. It flys like a fast C kite but has all the de-power of a bow. You don't need to move it to generate power, just sheet in. When you want to ride the best part of the wave, sheet out. And, it of course has a 5th line |

hard to imagine as easy as the new hybrids are,
they are just beginning
All most as hard to believe how hard early kites were
Lines instead tubes are so much more efficient |
