If rumors are true there is good news: skycountry has left ukrain and found a new place to produce in low capacity in some other country in eastern europe.

I asked Éric. He was not aware but Indeed yes, apparently Sky country found a new place, still in Ukraine, to relocate the factory and rebuild kites and paragliders in a safer place in the future.

Looks great! How do you rate the jump height and hangtime compared to kites like Ozone Chrono, Flysurfer Sonic/Soul, Concept Air Pulsion, etc?

I would Say "average".
I never tested the chrono nor soul for jump
Easier timing and ressource than Sonic but less hang Time for experienced riders.
I would Say comparable to Pulsion but it is long time ago when i tried jumping with a 12m pulsion and i had less skills (3 years ago).
I would not choose the Spirit v2 if jump is your main criteria. But it jumps resonably well. Actually very "allround" kite
