Hello Andy666 Sorry, that you was disappointed with the first flights. Let me give some background info from the developers point of view. The SPEED4 has very short and direct depower and travelranges. It need a bit time to get used to it, as that is a bit unique.But after it can happen that you feel your arms are not long enough for other kites. Maybe it is to direct from some people. We will carefully watch the feedback after they have flown it a few times. From our Experience, people get used to it after a few sessions. That the “sweet Spot” of the depower is at the right place is the important key! While riding powered up with more tension in the lines like kiting on water, the frontlines stretch and power up the kites more. Riding in a buggy is usually with less power and shortening the backlines for the first session is needed. To adjust that, we recommend shortening the Backlines. If you extend the frontlines with more than the standard Depowerleaderline allow, the FLS-Line can pull down one flyingline, which is not good. To have a faster/easier adjustment for the frontlines is on our To Do list for the future. Saftey: We know, that the Saftey is not perfect. We compared it with the FDS, and the FLS had a better relaunch ability. Other safety options are in development, but so far we have no option that work in overall better. If you find one, let us know. Backstall Landing: If we improved the backstall landing, other points get worse. We balanced than a compromise but focused more on turning and flying. We will go on to listen carefully to the feedback. I hope, this info will help a bit. Thank you, Armin

Hi That is a very nice beach. Thanks, for the Video from our SPEED3. Very nice to see so many feedback and videos about our SPEED3 around the globe. Here a video from a 360 in a Buggy with the SPEED3: http://www.flysurfer.com/gallery2_code/ ... +360-1.MPG http://www.flysurfer.com/gallery2_code/ ... +360-2.MPG Rider is Pascal Lohmann Thanks, Armin

Thanks Jason for your thrust and your order. I am sure, you will be very impressed. We have also in Size 12.0 big preorders. But we work hard to ship out all preorders within the next 4 weeks to our importers. Thanks, Armin

Hi As the Deluxe Kites are a lot lighter, the energy while crashing is smaller. The durability is at a very similar level for the Deluxe kites of today and serial Kites. To take care about the gear always helps a lot to keep the gear in the best possible shape for a lot of year. To take the wing at unused time out of the sun and not to crash it full speed are things that every kite prefer for a long lifetime. Thanks, Armin

Hi The www see everything. This is one from our SPEED3 Proto´s we are experimenting with. It is very hard to beat the SPEED2, as it it define a own class of unbeaten light wind fun. But we have to start to find solutions to beat it. The Speed3 will for sure not hit the market before August, maybe it will take even longer. As long as we can´t beat the SPEED2 we will not release a SPEED3. We just improved the SPEED2 and already released the Deluxe Edition: Have fun, Armin

Thanks, that you like them. We will start shipping the first Boards in February already. Armin

Hi Joffa 1. Flyinglines: As the Frontlines have more load than the backline, they strech out. This happen to all kites. As a result, the kite gets more powered up and you have to pull the strap to compensate it. But it is better to shorten the “Depowerleraderline” that is above the Trimmer. You can do that until the kite has no Backstalling in normal conditions any more. 2. Mixertest: If the A-Main and Z-Main should be a little different it is no problem. Just don´t care if the ELC (Metal bones) are not at the same level. There is no need to add a knot into one of that lines. If there is any difference, that can be also compensated with the Depowerlederline described above. The PULSE2 is with all Lines (A,B,C,Z-Main) at the same level very stable. To extend C for about 1 up to 2 cm and B will follow the half is usually possible to make it more aggressive/powerfull. I hope, the answere helps. Thanks, Armin

Hi Luke. I am happy, you didn´t kill your self. It look like you try to combine a kiteloop landing to blind to your trick list. Please be carfull, we just enjoy your riding to much. Armin

Happy Birthday Luke. I hope as a birthday present the OUTLAW 10.0 and PS4 8.0 will go today on the road to you. I am proud to have you in our Team. Be carfull with your bones! Thanks, Armin

Hi Here is a close up pic from this guidance block: Source: www.foillia.it If allows to use a 5th line with out a heavy stopper that tangle with the other lines. Our PS4 Manual is in german already online: http://www.flysurfer.com/Gallery/v/downloads/manuals/psycho4_manual_web.pdf.html More infos about PS4 inkl. a first customer Video can be found here: http://www.kiteforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=2349659&start=20 Bye, Armin

Hi Luke. We don´t change the the setup of other models. The Infinity Bar is more expensive than the full depower bar we have at the other models. We don´t want to increase the prices. But we sell the Infinity bar soon separatly and do offers to upgrade. So it is possible to add the Infinity Bar to all Kites in the future. Bye, Armin

Hi Jason The Core Bar has 3 holes for example out of plastic wich is screwed. Our Infinity Bar das one big V-Shaped eyelet with a moving part called separator. It is metal and not screwed. The advantage ist that you can steer hard and can still depower frictionless. The Winders are also different construction. Our Bar can be modified in 3 steps up to 10cm width. Bye, Armin

Hi The Infinity bar is our completely own Design, except the Chickenloop. We have also build a own Chickenloop Design. Rendered Pictures was show here. It is a innovative concept it need more testing time, to be 100% sure it will fit out high safety wishes. So we decide to go instead for the best QR we can find on the market and combine it with out bar system we developed instead of maybe get a problem with a not 100% tested system. Bye, Armin

Yes, the PSYCHO4 has 2.2 shorter bribles than the PSYCHO3. Bye, Armin

Here are the right rendered Pics with the right quick release: http://www.kiteforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=2349427&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=10

Hi Joel I have to thank you about being interested into our Products. Like written in the newsletter, we use the well tested quick release from www.hiss-tec.com. The pin is way shorter than the north one and the release hull covers the hand on top to avoid the pin to hit you hand. We will not change the serial production of the existing models. But we offer upgrade possibilities for our customers the next weeks. Details will follow in our newsletter, and at http://www.FLYSURFER.de Bye, Armin

Hi The rendered and not Photoshoped Pictures are not public previews, as they are not showing the final INFINITY BAR. The Quickrelease will be different. At our Newsletter you see the final Quickrelease: http://www.flysurfer.com/Newsletter/show/?file=archive&nid=577&frame=1'>http://www.flysurfer.com/Newsletter/show/?file=archive&nid=577&frame=1 There you see also that we have a Special V-Shaped Eyelet with a moving separator that split both Depowerlines to allow to untwist all lines by pushing down the bar. If you have more questions, I will answer them here for you. Bye, Armin BTW: To get registered to our newsletter, just click here: http://www.flysurfer.com/Newsletter/
