Key Changes
- The new 6-point bridle geometry results in better load transfer, which gives a more direct feel, less bar pressure and increased turning control.
- New bridle geometry helps with stability of the arc and wingtips and results in reduced bridle catch.
- Faster tip profiles reduce drag during turns and loops.
- The slightly reduced aspect ratio enhances the turning ability and broadens the crossover performance.
- New Push Lock valve for faster inflation and deflation.
- New triple closing seam for strength and durability.
- New bag design.
Design Vision
This is the RS+ V4, upgrading every session with an unmistakable advancement in performance. Built to feel lighter and more refined on the water, the RS+ turns every freeride into a premium experience.
Built for superior performance, the RS+ V4 has been refined for stability with a balance of agility and power. Reduced swing weight delivers quicker turns, smoother transitions, and a lively feel that keeps the kite flying efficiently and confidently in all freeride conditions.
Engineered for control, the RS+ V4 has a very direct feel with predictable flight. The finely tuned frame blends stiffness with enough structural twist where needed, resulting in crisp steering with minimal deformation. The RS+ responds precisely to your input, letting you push harder with complete confidence.
Born from next-gen materials, the RS+ is infused with advanced fabrics that reduce weight while increasing strength and performance. Improved load distribution makes the RS+ more efficient and responsive, and XTC TEX 2.0 material in the leading edge allows for a stronger yet thinner leading edge for even faster steering.
New for V4 is the refined six-point bridle geometry, which improves load transfer for a more direct feel, lighter bar pressure, and sharper turning. Increased arc and wingtip stability reduces bridle catch while faster tip profiles cut drag through turns and loops. A slightly reduced aspect ratio boosts agility and widens the crossover performance range. Strength and durability are enhanced with a new triple closing seam, while the new Push Lock valve speeds up inflation and deflation.
The RS+ V4 is for ambitious freeriders who want lightweight performance with a sharp, connected feel. The RS+ V4 suits freeriders wanting instant feedback and speed, making it a favourite for double-loopers chasing precision and power.
