Six line kites were a thing ten years ago.
You could stick a pulley on the kite with this setup and have 2:1 depower
Afaik it's still a thing, Hadlow still has a 6 line setup.
And for the reedin pictures, it's 8 lines. All 4 have double lines = 8 lines.

I’ve found the images now - yes, terrible photoshop work! Otherwise they look good although I find the ‘skinniest bar on the market’ thing slightly strange - is there a call for this? I prefer my bar not to be too thin.
Thinner the bar the more vibration you get come through to your hands and more chance of tennis elbow etc from your board so no. If use a a kite that has a skinny bar and then the same kite with an ozone fatter one. So much better feel without all the ricketyness!
Any proper reviews by owners yet. They been put a while now.

Hi. There are quite a lot of Reedin Super model in use. I would like to hear more feedback from users. I have a Reedin 10m and I'm very happy with it. I would also like to know more about the 7m supermodel. especially when it comes to big air.

Are there really so few people flying for a super model? It is very hard to find any opinions and reviews of these kites. I often see these kites at spots in the Netherlands.
Or is it a secret ...?

Too much product placement on this forum. Social media influencers are becoming the telemarketers of the internet
I agree, I think too many ppl will defend the company even if they are not doing that great of a job just because they own one of their kite. I am sorry but I will say this kite is ugly, I will not own one.

Whether the kite is ugly or pretty is a matter of taste. The colors do not affect its properties. There are many kites on the market that are ugly. But I like Reedin very much.

Still no proper reviews though?
Must be time for a supermodel 2 now isn’t it? When does that release?

Please don't let it be another brand that releases the same kite in a different color every year, that would adorn them..
