Jérémie Tronet, pro rider and manager of the kite base on Union Island in the Grenadines, is quickly becoming the go-to reference for testing the new kites from the kite range of North Kiteboarding.  He rides every style and regularly shows us his sessions at the idyllic Union Island spot. With his in-depth knowledge of the North range. Here is the footage from the test of the new North Rebel 2018 kite: [embed]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3r52QDiOzKs[/embed]

Here is a first look at the new North Rebel 2018 kite. And this year it's a revolution!

This year Northkiteboarding has radically reworked the Rebel for 2018, and it goes to 4 lines! No more active 5th line. The North Rebel 2018 is more C-shaped and comes with a front bridle to fly with the North Quad Control bar (bar with 4 lines). As across the whole range of Northkiteboarding, you can still fly with a 5-line bar, but the 5th line is passive and only there to make relaunch easier and for safety. Going to 4 lines makes it livelier and more maneuverable, and above all suited to a wider audience. It keeps what made the North Rebel a hit, namely a big ability to jump and climb high, but gains versatility and accessibility! For 2018, the whole North kite range, including the Rebel 2018, is fitted with the new Teijin Trinity TX canopy fabric, the best fabric currently available. It has two horizontal “lines” and 3 “vertical” lines and offers a perfect balance between durability, weight and flexibility. KEY POINTS: • 4 lines (5th line optional). • Livelier and more maneuverable. • More accessible and allround. • Unmatched jumping ability • Short bridle with 6 anchor points on the leading edge • New Teijin “TRINITY TX” canopy fabric   If you love height and hangtime the North Rebel 2018 is the kite for you! Coming soon to the Glissevolution store.
