If you need to ask that question; for you, the Rebel would be better.

I think they mean that if you have to ask which kite is "better", it means you don't understand that kites are generally not better than any other kite overall - that they are tailored towards different uses, and one man's "better" kite is not going to be another man's "better" kite. From this, they gathered that you are relatively new to the sport, hence recommending you the Rebel, which is more of a beginners' "better" kite.

The rebel is an all rounder kite, good at everything, but not specialized in any area, whereas the Vegas is targeted at the wakeboard style kiting. So if you like doing spazzo dingly dangliies then the Vegas is probably the go.

I disagree.. The rebel is the perfect spazzo dingly dangles kite. Well, that's all I see from rebel owners anyways.

You'll rarely see a wake style rat dangling. Unless they are mocking rebel riders
