How about getting rid of triple depower? Do all of you like it? Or do some want to sheet out and have the kite move to the edge of the window? I'm just wondering if this has been a real improvement or not. Any thoughts?

This is so true. This is a great value for the costumer as well, when seling second hand. If there were 3 generations of newer model out it would be tough to sell for a decent price.

Speed2 19 versus Speed3 21 - triple depower is without a doubt an improvement! Range and stability improved kite goes to the edge of the window fine but more importantly, is more stable there. S2 probably went a bit further (see THAT video with the X-19 in it) but the S3 goes far enough to make over-powered riding easier to deal with.

triple depower improved the stability/depower un my mountain lakes as well as snowkiting...a huge positive point.

IMO Flysurfer should eliminates those 3 kites....12/15/19 in "standard" cloth altogether

.......according to their price list...you only save $300 for 12M / $400 on 15M and 19M

....When you are a high performance foil company....only offer the very best there is
...you should not offer a "heavier" kite as an option

.....the "Deluxe" material is very very strong and of the highest quality possible....

.....i have flown them all in standard and in deluxe........and standard always "feels" inferior

............................................... ..............................................................

well if u don t aim for the extreme low end, the regular fabric is enough and u save up some cash..
it sl ikie being Audi cars...u can get the basic one and u can get some options to improve the car

Poor example because an Audi is an Audi no matter what option added to it

Kite material choice should not even exist for Flysurfer

Real high performance cars are not made of steel (metal) but lightweight strong composite

The Corvette car is NOT offered in inferior heavy metal body

+3 what EZ said.

I think it is too little too late................ for the Coloured Speed3 .............

Flysurfer may be grasping at straws....is all the "fizz" from the water foil era almost gone

Lots of people got irritated with that infinity 2.0 bar upgrade brou ha ha....blah ...blah ...blah

Many have jumped ship with the release of all the "new" models 2012 improved LW tube kites...

I think everyone would have loved a new SP4........but instead "same old book with a colorful cover"

......just an observation ................. ..........................................................

May be ... but I think there'll always be a core of foil-kiters, either coming from the land or impressed by the hang-time.

Don't forget that people like making choices ... even if it's just an illusion of having options
