SUPERMODEL has gotten massive upgrades. We’ve put it on a diet, shaving off up to an incredible 550 grams, completely reworked the bridles from an 8-point to a 12-point system, and we’re introducing HTF2.
We’ve taken SUPERMODEL to an entirely new level once again.
Key points
Weight reduction
By reducing the total weight up to 15% compared to last year’s SUPERMODEL, flight characteristics have drastically increased. The 9m is now 450 grams lighter! Increased responsiveness, higher jumps, better low-end, faster loops, the benefits are endless.
All new bridles
Making the platform even more solid in all conditions was our goal. By adding 4 attachment points, we’ve created a kite not only more stable in nuking winds, the overall feeling of stiffness, responsiveness, and stability is instantly noticeable.
HTF 2
The introduction of Hybrid Torsion Frame is a major success, and further development and hours of testing and analysing led us to greatly improve the implementation. New strut material and an added FLEXLITE segment make it respond even faster and turn faster and smoother.
A kite looping dream
Overall work on canopy tension, seams, and trailing edge materials have resulted in significantly less chance of canopy flutter when aggressively looping, which could potentially slow down the kite. SUPERMODEL loops smoothly while accelerating through the turn, for the most confident catches.
All conditions, any discipline
SUPERMODEL will always stay true to what our riders love about it, being the ultimate do-it-all kite. Whether you’re new to a Reedin kite, or upgrading, you will feel right at home and ready for anything you want to throw at it.
Easy to ride
We all want to have the most fun possible when riding. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just starting out, your kite should be easy to ride, giving bar feedback to always feel where the kite is, so you can focus on your riding. SUPERMODEL is like an extension of your body.
HTF 2: Hybrid Torsion Frame
HTF comes from analyzing how kites turn, and then using a combination of different materials to greatly enhance response to steering input.
Stiff dacron
The center of the leading edge is made out of stiff dacron. This gives SuperModel HTF its stiffness and rigidity right where you want it.
FLEXLITE
FlexLite is made of a thinner, tighter yarn, that reacts quicker to pull and compression forces that happen in the material when a kite is steered. We’ve placed it on the sections of the frame that are key to making a kite turn, what we call the Torsion Zone.
New for HTF 2
We’ve improved turning speed and response through two updates. Further testing and analysis have led us to add FLEXLITE to an extra segment on the leading edge, allowing for more torsion and tighter turns.
FLEXSTRUT LIGHT
All struts are now made from new ultralight 90gsm material, not only reducing the kites overall weight, but also giving a smoother flex into the canopy when steering.
