We propose an extension to recently developed Relativistic Lattice Boltzmann solvers (RLBM), which allows the simulation of flows close to the free streaming limit. Following previous works [Phys. Rev. C 98 (2018) 035201], we use product quadrature rules and select weights and nodes by separately discretising the radial and the angular components. This procedure facilitates the development of quadrature-based RLBM with increased isotropy levels, thus improving the accuracy of the method for the simulation of flows beyond the hydrodynamic regime. In order to quantify the improvement of this discretisation procedure over existing methods, we perform numerical tests of shock waves in one and two spatial dimensions in various kinetic regimes across the hydrodynamic and the free-streaming limits.
