Hi all,
I have just received and tested a new closed cells kite coming from Canada. As promised, herebelow its presentation and first trial.
Birth :
- name "Pulsion" formerly called "Aquatik" when it was a prototype
- created by Benoit tremblay from Conceptair, one of the first, if not THE first closed cells kite creator, back in 1999...
- exists in 6-9-12m with an option for light cloth of only 27gr/m (lighter than lotus from Flysurfer)
- developped specifically by Benoit for foil application, for freeride-light wind, fun and accessibility. No race nor speed program.
- fabricated in canada, on command
Mine is a beautiful 12m orange-light cloth. Total measured weight : 1,7 kg ! First aim of limited weight is reached ...
Test yesterday : for french readers who wants every details, i made a long long report here :

Incredible light wind as you can see on this awful quality video made with one hand , just before trying with my hydrofoil (with poor hopes of success as you can guess ...

But Actually I have foiled during one hour without kite crash : -).
It flies earlier than lotus and elf, similarly as peak , at first sight. I'll make the translation of my test conclusions later on, but i love this agile and light kite.
