“If you want to get psyched in seconds, try the new RS!” Eleveight just released their RS V5; A highly versatile delta-hybrid powerhouse designed for limitless freeride performance with distinctive surf and freestyle characteristics.

The RS is an all-round powerhouse designed to tame any storm, boost massive airs, and master any spot. High-performance versatility made it our best selling kite, getting freeriders instantly psyched, even when chasing waves or popping freestyle tricks. The aerodynamic delta-hybrid design delivers exceptional efficiency meaning most RS riders will be content with a quiver of just two kites to cover the entire wind range. The construction features a medium to a high aspect ratio with a huge angle-of-attack, giving the RS extra grunt making it particularly powerful. Combined with its dynamic speed, it truly stands out when going for massive airs, generating bags of hangtime and thrilling forward momentum when kite looping.
