North Rebel 14m. sooo slick. :)
granted its last years model, 07, i still got it brand new and it's amazing. WAY better than flying with my Peter lynn.

Even powered up on my peterlynn, i could never actually get upwind. it was very hard. with this kite, its incredibly easy. it's like a new sport, and the bar pressure and turn speed... soo much better!

The Phantom is nice, especially for me considering I fly inland 90% of the time and it's humungous windrange + pretty easy self-launch. I won't be getting rid of it anytime soon.

Relaunching the Rebel on water or land or quite a synch. I would say it is easier on both, but launching from the go, solo, is harder. I was surprised how easy the relaunch abilities were. I had to relaunch the Phantom on water a few times myself, it was all pretty easy, just pull one of the center lines and she pops open and flies up to ze zenith. Even when in the water for a long time and losing internal pressure.

got it a couple weeks ago. :)
