Flysurfer, bring back the Psycho 4
Posted: Tue Jan 08, 2019 6:34 pm
For my last couple hydrofoiling sessions down in Miami, the winds were higher so I got to brush off the dust on my Psycho 4 6m and to take it out for a spin. I'm happy to report that I had a fantastic time with it. I ended up getting the very last one sold by Flysurfer, and with it's short bridal, great turning speed, and fantastic drift, I think it does a damn good job with a hydrofoil. This got me thinking, if Flysurfer were to just update it a little like use their new fabric, ditch the jet flaps and zipper, and tweak the bridal with new materials, I think they would have a winner. I know they made a 4m for a select few and I would jump on one in an instant. Anyone else use they pyscho or older foils for hydrofoiling? Yea it has the typical old foil issues like the zipper being frozen, folding wing tips due to bridal shrink, and a smaller wind range but I'm now convinced it's worth putting some time in it to retune and it's not my high wind kite of choice.
