4.2
/ 5.0

The 2026 Reedin Super Model (marketed as 2025) is a thoroughly refined do-it-all freeride kite, built around a redesigned arc, pulley-less bridle, extra HF canopy panels, and battened trailing edge for a noticeably smoother, more direct feel. It is positioned as the kite for 95% of riders who want one quiver kite across disciplines. The main caveat is that the lineup now stops at 12m, with light-wind riders pushed to the separate Whisper Model.

Pros

  • +Pulley-less bridle delivers more direct, responsive bar feel
  • +Extra HF panel on leading edge improves canopy twist and turning speed
  • +Battened trailing edge produces exceptionally smooth, butter-like turns
  • +Updated arc and repositioned bridles maintain full depower despite no pulley
  • +Weight reduced across the kite without changing materials
  • +Genuinely versatile — twin tip, foil, surf, and jumping all covered

Cons

  • −Lineup capped at 12m; light-wind riders must buy the separate Whisper Model
  • −Pulley-less bridle is new and unproven long-term in the field
  • −Performance riders wanting max speed and new-school response should look at the Hypermodel instead
  • −Review is brand-hosted with Kevin Langeree — independent critical testing absent

Best for

All-around freeriders who want one kite that handles twin tip, foil, casual jumping, and cruising across a wide wind range.

Not for

Dedicated light-wind riders or aggressive new-school riders chasing maximum bar speed and performance headroom.
