User Rating:
For 2015, RRD have re-analysed the whole concept of the Obsession design base and every possible component to achieve the new RRD Obsession MKVI.
The RRD Obsession is so popular due to it's versatile range of use and its sporty feeling in your hands thanks to a light bar feel and a very quick response to the bar inputs. It jumps great, keeping you in the air longer than you could expect, and still retains an easy depower feel when a stronger wind gust hits the kite.
The Obsession is also highly appreciated by riders who use strapless surfboards to do freestyle tricks or jumps on flat water. Its special wide range of use behaviour comes from it's swept back tips design, creating a very constant amount of power even in very gusty winds. Its “Sheet-and-Go” power delivery also makes it a perfect light wind machine, with great freeride performance potential, reaching top speed runs and great upwind legs.
RRD for 2015 have slightly changed the foil profile of the Obsession and made it a bit flatter throughout the tip area, enabling the kite to be turning faster and also be more efficient when flying into the wind window.
The vertical shaped struts with new attachment system to the leading edge has greatly improved the foil stability, allowing RRD to flatten the body shape towards the trailing edge. The 2015 Obsession kite is now 20% more stable in the air, and thanks to this feature, RRD were able to completely re-design the bridle.
Now the RRD Obsession 2015 is even more powerful than previous models, yet, incredibly it has even more range in the upper end with a softer, more progressive de-power feel.
In the big sizes the Obsession MKVII is not only faster, but even easier to be kitelooped, with a more constant but neutral feel.
All in all RRD have changed the Obsession inside out, but surely one thing was kept the same, the outstanding graphics that are part of the body of the kite, and are not printed on top, ensuring a longer lifetime, a lighter weight and a better construction strength.

RRD Global V6 Control Bar System
Riders of all levels, from pros to newcomers, will all gain substantial advantages from the new RRD Global V6 2015 Control Bar.
The new Global Bar V6 has been further simplified to make Kiteboarding easier, safer and longer lasting. RRD have taken all unnecessary parts out and created a full lean and smart control bar that works with water and sand.
RRD have further refined the swivel system below the Chicken loop de-power attachment, with the introduction of a special self lubricating plastic composite washer, avoiding front lines swivel or double de power lines.
All kite sizes can be flown with the same bar.
