Cross Over Freeride Kite
The RS is Eleveight's signature powerhouse, designed with "one-kite-fits-all" versatility for limitless freeride performance.
Includes: kite and kite bag
"The RS is our best-selling kite, shattering limits with its freeride versatility. Packed with nifty features, the RS is designed to tame any storm, boost massive airs, and master any kite spot.
Version 7 has exceptional efficiency with a revised profile for even better low-end performance. Its aerodynamic delta-hybrid design has extraordinary capabilities, allowing for just two kites to cover the whole wind range.
The construction features a medium to high aspect ratio with a huge angle-of-attack which adds grunt and power. The load distribution is protected, even over time, and the three-strut frame structure supports the canopy for extra stability, making it accessible to riders of all levels.
With smooth power generation and light turning initiation, the RS has an ultra-direct feel. Fast flight and turning characteristics also allow the RS to be quick in response with limitless riding potential.
Dynamic speed, bags of hangtime and thrilling forward momentum make the RS kite truly stand out. Even when chasing waves or popping freestyle tricks, the RS delivers high performance and swiftly travels upwind no matter the gusts or how choppy the water.
The RS is an all-round powerhouse getting freeriders stoked in seconds." -Eleveight
Extreme High Tenacity 4x4 Ripstop Weave
The superior X4 canopy fabric is strong and tear-resistant to guarantee durability and lasting performance. X4 is engineered to be dynamic and developed exclusively in partnership with Teijin, the leading supplier of sailcloth materials. Made from the best 4×4 ripstop polyester yarn, X4 has less elongation and a high-temperature UV-resistant resin finish.
Double Bond Canopy
To ensure your kite can take a beating, every seam is glued and stitched for maximum durability.
Quick Flow
The large diameter of our valves and strut connectors ensures fast, easy inflation and deflation of your kite without the need for a hose connector.
Strut Force Distribution
Each Strut has a double strut head reinforcement to create a solid inflatable kite frame. This allows for optimum turning and smoother handling.
Short Bridle
The short pulley-free 5-point bridle setup enhances the kite’s turning speed and agility. Your bar input is direct, while the risk of catching the wingtip is reduced.
3D Bridle Deflector
The redesigned 3D bridle deflector has structural reinforcement covering the closing seam. It decreases the possibility of bridle wrap, making water starts easier and safer.
Canopy Guards
Strategically placed Extreme Tenacity (XT) cloth reinforcements eliminate canopy wear and tear including pinholes caused by the valves.
Germany Made PU Bladder Material
A kite’s bladder is the core element of its inflatable structure so Eleveight uses the toughest and lightest material available, made in Germany. Engineered specifically for kites, this material defines the kite’s weight and durability.
Safe Connect
Eleveight helps you rig your kite safely and avoid mixing up lines with the kook-proof front and backline connection points.
Easy Trim
Fly the kite your way by easily switching between backline trim options with the pull-to-pull tags. Two steering line settings are available, allowing you to choose your turning speed and bar pressure.
Leading Edge Load Dynamic Super Seam
A triple-reinforced closing seam along the leading edge makes it practically indestructible. The centre segments have stronger reinforcements as the material load is much higher compared to the smaller diameter of the wingtips.
Ultra-Light Load Diffuser
Angled reinforcements along the trailing edge diffuse the load and strain on the canopy, making it more durable while improving kite stability and longevity.
Turning Trim Setting
Trim the kite according to your riding style and the wind conditions by switching between different bridle line turning settings. The pivot set-up makes the kite faster and offers more depower, while the tip set-up increases the turning radius and offers more power and grunt. All our kites have the standard middle set-up pre-selected to offer the best balance.
2 Step Force Transition
The load transition between the inflatable frame structure and the ripstop material is optimized for improved stability and durability. An extra layer of double ripstop sits between the inflatable structure and the X4 ripstop to protect the load.
Extreme High Tenacity Cloth
The XT Extreme High Tenacity Cloth is a high performance inflatable structure mateXT cloth has extremely high tenacity and is used in Eleveight's inflatable structures to allow them to twist while balancing stability and stiffness. XT ensures high performance and is developed exclusively in partnership with Teijin, the leading supplier of sailcloth materials. It features a highly specialised UV-resistant coating and is woven to produce a structure that guarantees strength.
