known for their high performance
in low wind conditions. The
SPEED5 joins these footsteps
and shows a solid performance
and fun factor from 8 knots
onwards.
The development team emphasized
easy handling of the SPE-
ED5. The result is a fast set-up,
effortless steering and riding as
well as easy launching and landing.
Because of its steady increase
of lift, take-offs and high
controllable jumps are made
easy. An aspect ratio of 6.15 in
combination with an optimized
profile and rigid-foils increase
the glide ratio. In comparison
to the SPEED4 this results in a
stronger kick, increased jumping
height, hang time and an
even slightly better upwind performance.
The faster and more
precise turning of the SPEED5
makes its use a blast.
FLYSURFER’s virtue is to enable
customers to travel light and
comfortably. For that reason
the SPEED5 has light and small
packaging. The light weight
allows easy transportation -
whether it is for your adventure
holidays or business trips. In
addition, the kite bag features
enough space for even more kites.
The technical features are generated
from many years of
experience of the FLYSURFER
developing and workshop team
and their close collaboration.
DLX+ Cloth - The DLX+ cloth is
FLYSURFER’s newest cloth material
and has exclusively been
developed for the SPEED5. Its
base fabric is stronger and with
improved air density due to optimized
coating. This prolongues
the durability and restistance
of the canopy to aging.
Additionally the cloth features
shiny fresh colors.
