Is there anyway I can find out what year this north rebel is please? I'm not the owner of the kite or able to check over it for a date.
would there be a date somewhere so I ask ask the owner to look there? Or does anyone recognise the colours etc and know what year it is please.

I don't know the answer but I would say looks like 2010 to 2011ish

Ask for the serial number, that may have the date within it.

It's a 2008. The year is on your kite bag in the corner of the image you posted you can actually see the O8



For example, in the picture below, you got a Size: 12m Rebel from year: 08 (2008)

If your considering buying it - DONT........
Unless the valves have already been replaced they will be on their way out - happens on almost all North kites from pre 2012 and will lead to costly replacement/lengthy fix

Totally Agree with Ryan,

I just re-read your initial post and as I understand it you want to buy this. Even if it was free you should walk away. It will cost you hundreds of dollars and a lot of time to replace all the valves. Not worth it.
