HQ Matrix closed cell foil

This kite in a nutshell is like a Montana 6 closed cell kite. It is very fast turning and has loads of lift and float. I was impressed with the video. Take a look. Kite is available late spring. It will come in 9, 12, and 15m.

I continue to really like the directin HQ is heading and the investment they make in the power kite community. Too bad no 6m. It would have been a nice edition to the line.

Will be interesting to see how they price the kite compared to FS.

I think in this case we can expect pricing much below flysurfer, and it looks to be a faster kite as well. I'd like to give that 15m a run on the water. I'm thinking I'd be gravity challenged but opposite of how gravity usually affects me. :smilegrin:
