Re: Most fun kite in sub 10 knots and a surf wing

95 kg and Soul 9M works well from 7 knots, and 8-9-10 knots is absolute fun on 1200 mid aspect surf wing. Small Souls are absloute fun on big surf foils when you are lightly powered so the kite needs to be actively flown. 12 Soul or bigger ones like Soul 15 or Sonic3 15 are also tons of fun on 590 M...

Re: You love it - SUP and kite shop in Dusseldorf - Do not buy!

Still very bad customer service. Not getting my product since January. They still trying to tell me that my product is on the way. Their money back guarantee is joke. No wonder they are asking for bank transfer so the customer won't be able to run a cashback on his credit card payment. I wish I rath...

Re: Soul V2?

Forgive me for being thick - it would be great if someone could work out how to get a foil kite like the Soul to turn faster. I’m not sure I quite get why this is not possible. The Soul in particular once inflated is a really solid kite in the sky, so why is there not a way to make a bridle system ...

Re: Flysurfer Soul line extensions

Soul 15 was the best for me on 23 meter lines. You get the needed power plus on the lowend but does not change the tuning and jumping characteristics. So 3 meter line extensions is the perfect one.

Re: Bigger Booster sonic 3 vs Soul

Cool! Thanks! Would you say an 11 sonic or 13 sonic is more like a 12 soul? I would say the 13 Sonic is the one that is closer in the windrange. The top end windrange is surely the same. The bottom end could be better slightly especially with some line extensions. I loved my Sonic 3 13M on 22 meter...

Re: Bigger Booster sonic 3 vs Soul

I agree as well. In lighter winds a Sonic 15-18 with more speed and performance could jump quite easily higher than a Soul. The smaller sized Sonics takes quite a different technique to jump higher than a Soul. Theoritecally possible, but the smaller Soul sizes just so much easier to jump some very ...

Re: Will a light weight rider be faster than a heavy weight?

Does the foil have more drag with a heavy rider? I assume the smaller kite of a less heavier rider also has less drag... Maybe we can relate it to sailing...will a heavier rider be faster, since he can hold more power in the sail, but also might have more drag on the hull ? Yes, a heavier rider has...

Re: Flysurfer sonic Race

The Sonic FR is a freerace kite, something like the Sonic 3, while the R1 is a full race kite with thinner profile and less pull per square meter. You can get more performance by making a more staright mixer. b: -15 and C-25 mm should be more than enough to gain some permormance and still keeping it...

Re: Soul V2?

The Soul has more performance than the Speed 3,4 and Speed 5 with much better stability and handling. The Soul 2 per my data is more just an evolution and refinement of the original Soul and Flysurfer willl not put this kite into a different category. The Sonic 3 is super stable and is not harder to...

Re: 9m v 10m Soul

What sort of wind speeds do you guys feel comfortable in launching your 9m & 10m Souls? Do you have an upper limit before you decide that it’s too windy to launch safely? for sure I would get out my phone to film anyone launching a 9mtr soul in 30 knts of wind, that's over 35mph, the soul is not we...
