Uitgebreide review van de Flysurfer Speed 10 & 17m:

Conclusion
I"ve had Flysurfers for a few years now and something pretty revolutionary would need to come out to make me swap. These Speeds only backup this statement. They are fantastic kites.
Designed for experienced kiters, there is nothing these kites can"t do. Land, snow and water, these kites really excel. Upwind performance is very impressive, jumping and hang time is impressive. Its really hard to find any bad points with these kites, if I really had to find something then it would have to be the tangling rotor leash and the tangles with the lines, but this is probably more my fault than the kite"s.
Every top of the range kite Flysurfer release is so much better than the one before. Everything has been thought about, everything has been tweaked, everything comes together to give you probably the best foil kite ever made.
If you have never flown a Flysurfer then you really are missing out. If you have never owned a Flysurfer then you are missing out.
These Flysurfer Speeds redefine kiting. The measure used to define extreme has been redefined.

....SPEED!! helemaal super stuurt m,n 10m2, sneller als de vergelijkbare tubes 12-16m2 die ik in m,n handen heb gehad.
Dit voral omdat je de stuursnelheid en directheid aan kan passen aan de wind en je wensen.
Ik neem aan dat je deze vraag stelt i.v.m. ervaringen/geruchten met/over oudere FS kites, het sturen met FS kites zou erg langzaam gaan. Ik kan je vertellen dat dit probleem bij de speed kompleet verledentijd is geworden is
Na de warrior kwam de psycho, titan, spirit, voodoo, psycho2, extacy en de speed.
da"s 7 generaties verder. Ik ben iig super happy met m"n Speed
