Does anyone know where I can demo a 6m or 7m north rebel? I've already tried an 8m and though it was amazing but the conditions were up and down so I'm not really convinced on what size I need.

The overall feel of a kite is not lost on size.
A 9m rebel will 'feel' the same as 12m rebel.

I guess if you have tried an 8 and like the Rebel then i suggest having a chat with your local shop guywho knows you and working out a size.

I'm on a 7m and 9m Rebel those sizes do me from about 18kn up to 30 and I'm not petite like you.

I think Johnno Keys has a 5m might be worth pm'ing him......

Whatever size you do get, just leave it beside the fridge incase it's really windy and I get home before you!

Hey Nick,

Whilst cleaning out the trailer the other day, I found your bar! Catch up with me and I can swap you back for it.

@ Lish, drop into the store and I can hook you up with Tony for a demo.

Cheers,

DM
