DESIGN VISION
All-round Versatility
Maximize every session with the unparalleled versatility of the RS V9. The 3-strut delta shape ensures a light, stable, and responsive ride – ideal for big airs, relaxed cruising, or playful wave riding.
Exceptional Efficiency
The redesigned aerodynamic profile of the RS V9 delivers excellent low-end power in all sizes. The 14m and 17m models are made from lightweight XT Light material, which improves turning speed and responsiveness. With seamless performance in all conditions, the RS reduces the need for a large kite quiver and effortlessly covers a wide wind range.
Enormous Hangtime & Easy Upwind Riding
Enjoy insane hangtime, consistent drive, and effortless upwind riding. The optimized angle of attack ensures easy loop recovery and control – even in gusty or choppy water.
Fast, Agile & Smooth
The RS V9 is dynamic and precise in turns. The adjusted wingtip curvature and revised bridle points reduce bar pressure, leading to smoother steering and more control.
NEW FOR V9
The V9 version features Teijin's X6 Ripstop material for lighter and more durable tips, as well as a reinforced trailing edge. New triple-stitched reinforcements increase durability. The optimized leading edge arc ensures better power development and low-end, while new bridle settings provide even better bar feedback and customizable trim settings. The new twisted leading edge seam reduces bridle snagging – rounded off by a revised, space-saving kite bag for even more convenience during transport.

Whether freeride, big air double loops, or freestyle – the V9 impresses with its versatility. The RS is our bestseller and a true all-round talent that guarantees excitement from the very first launch.
