Flysurfer Pulse

Wednesday, October 11th, 2006

A saga of a review, definately indepth!

Manufacturer:

Flysurfer

Model:

Pulse

Sizes:

10M

Type Of Kite:

Closed cell bridled depower foil (water re-launchable)

Introduction:

The basic reason for me getting this kite was mainly because of the hype. I didn’t need another kite as I had 4 that covered every wind range that I would venture out in but the concept of the so called “Full depower” and gust munching ability of a kite that was unlike any other attracted me. So after a bit of digging I managed to get an ex-demo along with a new speed system chucked in for free.

Flysurfer Spirit

Sunday, October 8th, 2006

Manufacturer:

Flysurfer

Model:

Voodoo/Spirit

Sizes:

10M Reviewed - 4,7,10,14M Available

Type Of Kite:

Closed cell bridled depower foil (water re-launchable)

Introduction:

The Spirit is a freeride kite, which can be changed to a freestyler, wakestyler, waverider and even to a beginner kite, because of his many trim options. I bought this kite in place of my Rookie which was far too unstable for me and I needed a kite that wasn’t going to luff every 5 seconds inland and to sit nicely under my 13 meter Psycho 2. (The Voodoo and Spirit are almost the identical in characteristics, the only difference is that the spirit has a different paint job and is built with a heavier fabric.

Flexifoil are well known within the kiting industry, some people have seen this kite as their first foray into the foil depower market, whereas in fact looking back in history the Blade II had a retrofittable VPS (Variable Power System) for sizes 4.9 and above. So with that in mind they obviously had some concept of where to start.
