If you want the turning speed of a waroo 20 - get the rebel 12 , they're on par

Are you for real?
The Rebel flies heaps better and turns on a dime - by far the best wave riding kite ive ever flown, in fact the best kite period! Trust me, ive flown pretty much all the '07 kites on the market.

Must be something wrong there. Down here on the Goldy they are everywhere-ive heard that they are already norths best selling kite ever. Everyone that tries my kite goes out and buys one!!

Are you saying that the people down here:
A) Don't know any better
B) Don't have a waroo on hand to compare it too
C) Feel initimidated by the local retailers and/or teamriders

I think you are underestamating the inteligence of the average kiter.
Waroos are currently being demo'd left right and centre down here but everyone is buying the Rebels.Im not slagging the Waroos- they are OK, but the Rebel is exceptional. Of the three shops down here, only one could be called intimadating and they dont sell North!!!
Ps I have no vested interest in all of this, its my honest opinion.

I agree with you winddude.

The Rebel is a fantastic kite, I tried a 12mtr and ordered
one straight away. It arrived on wednesday and I am a very
happy kiter.
Got a black and pink 12mtr, looks great in the sky.

HI KURT
C) Feel initimidated by the local retailers and/or teamriders
And, being the Gold Coast, I would say "C" most probably!


I would like to here how you think i initimidate people in to buying rebels, since i am the only sponsered north team rider on the gold coast i guess you are talking about me.
The rebel slow turning ha get real don't bag out some thing you know nothing about if you want to pimp best thats fine we all know you are a best man i'm pretty sure you have a nuff to worrie about with some doggy stitching and how to sell your best kite a year later.

didn't read it untill this morning ,was pretty bussy yesterday must not have heard you.
