The RRD Y28 Obsession has been built using the best construction technologies: its aerodynamic and precision of design provides the rider with a powerful and sudden pull upward, allowing to reach heights never reached before and stay there for endless seconds.
Explosive power and big loop these are the two words to describe this kite. This new shape provides consistent stability through the power stroke which leads you to blindly trust the kite. This big air machine is also designed to boost, loop and for a predictably recovery.
It is very aggressive, but if you know how to tame this monster, you can go faster and higher than everyone else. The bar feel of the Obsession is crispy and direct, resulting in a reactive impulse.
The RRD Y27 Global bar is ergonomic with slimmer, flexible bar end floats and a more intuitive and easier to use safety release, plus off course the best lines on the market.
In addition to the new features, the Global is equipped with “Rigid Thread Lines”. These are used exclusively on the RRD bars with great success for over 9 years now. A product that’s now widely tested around the world, but there is little known about the details of its uniqueness by kiteboarders.
A pro rider will choose rigid thread lines over any flying lines in the market. The ‘Rigid Thread Lines’ of RRD Kites will never be subject to adjustment, since they won’t even stretch under stress-related moves, for example by extreme loops and consequently it is impossible to end up with stretched lines and/or of a different length and therefore the trim of the kite remains unchanged through the years.
Molded floating side caps injected with high memory EVA which facilitates a better bar grip and increased safety.
Made with CNC milled and polished aluminium, the centre bar piece comes with and oversized oval hole to improve de-power tube sliding even during some extreme steering.
New custom design stainless steel de-power rope cleat conceived around the double chamber tube, allowing the security line to slide freely.
Chicken loop safety release system with oversized handle and increased sliding potential of all components to secure an effective functionality over the years. This safety release system has the least amount of steel components on the market, meaning a longer lifetime and less maintenance.
