I need to get some freeride lightwind gear. My current quiver is made out of North Rebels (9 and 14). They are nice park and ride kites but now I need also something bigger, doesn't need to be park and ride, but I'm used to stable kites with a lot of depower.
1. Can somebody who has tested any two (or three) of the mentioned kites tell me what the differences are? I'm interested in the light-wind, boring, freeride performance.
2. If my information is correct, both Zephyr and Edge are still the 2013 models. When are the 2014 models coming out?

Could it be that 19m Edge feels better becouse it comes with the 27m lines instead of the regular 25m lines?Westozzy wrote:...have ridden all three kites a lot, although their pick for edges anyhow is the 19m edge (and I agree it is for some unknown reason to me a much better kite than the 17m edge).
... the Dyno will fit in nicely with your 9, and 14m, I've got roughly the same quiver (7, 9, 12 and 14 Rebel shared with family) and works well. One of the traits I like is they all have a good amount of bar feed back so you can feel where the kite is with accuracy even when depowered. The Edge felt soft and changed with differring winds and the Zeph right in the middle erring on the "bar feedback Rebel feel" side rather than the softness like the Edge.Cray wrote:Hey!
