Essentially the top end of this kite is serious arse wind, I have flown it in 30 knots and it was sweet as, remembering that in the old C kite days I always rode 3m less kite than everyone else. In this wind the kite was comfortable, this is where for me the 12m starts to top out for comfort and the 9m is honey. A 12m and a 9m makes sense and will have most kiters ampometre.
Hook up the arc welder boys this one sparks.
How to hook up your new 9m Rebel:
We have found that the best set up is to have the steering lines hooked up with the knots as factory but the leaders on the bar back (see photo here).
Kite turning speed:
dial in what you want, change the bar setting from inside to outside in 2 minutes. (Result lighter steering)
Change the steering line settings from Bow to C kite (see owner manual) this takes 2 minutes. (lighter quicker steering or more bow feel)
the kite turns as quick as you want, or is fine for wake tricks and intermediates if required
Bar pressure
As above what ever you want, the simple trick after that is to pull in the depower line as wind increases as this allows for a nice comfortable position with the bar, or as wind drops let it out. The goal being to keep the bar in the position you want as it will sit there as you wish, if you want boost power just pull that baby in and feel the boost.
Boost:
Total rocket G force
Simple, get one, super kite, so nice, this kite is without question a jet wing on flying lines.
Amp dial: major arc out!
