    Flexifoil Super 10

    On my 14th Birthday Last year I recieved a lovely brand spanking new super 10, i had been flying my stacker 6 since i was 10 and now fancied more power! The super 10 packet had changed it was vented with mesh at the front and had a pocket for the lines and the lovely handles!

    My first flight was in about 5-6mph winds just to get the hang of things, first impression! Great! one thing that really suprised me was the ease with which it was flying in a light wind the stacker 6 takes alot more wind to keep it up! the pull was good and consistant with good control and a wide flying angle in the wind window. Very impressive.

    The build quality is exellent and launching couldn't be easier! I have now flown it in all sorts of winds up to 25+mph where the kite turns into a raging speed demon monster type thing! dragging me effortlessly along the field and even giving a bit of air! The kite isn't great for jumping except in strong winds where air is definately possible! This is a powerful, fun and great kite for dragging you along and just having a laugh, it will put a smile on your face! it is perfect as an intermediate level power kite!

    P.S it is stupidly durable i've smashed it full speed into the ground many times and havent had a problem yet!

    Overall i think this kite is excellent all round, at first it seemed a bit on the expensive side but you definitely get what you pay for this kite has lasted a years reguler use and will certainly last for many more!

    Now due to my recent growth spurt i'm saving for a blade III 4.9! Bring on the air! i'm 12+1/2stone and 5ft 11' is this the right size for me? any help appreciated! thanks!

    I found the super 10's wear me out in 10 minutes as you have to keep them moving around the window. But as you say they really can move around, it's the fastest moving kite I've got and has actually dumped more people than my blade and bullet put together. Go for the 4.9! You've got experience. I'm the same size and weight, fantastic piece of kit, just watch it with wind speeds above 10mph. You'll see what I mean!! The four line concept, you'll find far less knackering. Have fun!

    I've had my 10 since Christmas 2004, and while not disappointed, don't feel I've taken it out in winds big enough to excite me. Owning a 1.5 Bullet, VERY fast and furious perhaps hasn't helped. Liked your review... good English for a 14 year-old! Well done!

    Great review, just got super 10, first time i flew it i ended on face down and dragged!! got quite a shock from the pull as the wind hit it. 10min flying in a good wind is harder work thatn 30min on the weights in the gym
