Flysurfer Speed4 10m, "A" condition - $990 complete
FS Flysurfer Speed4 10m Standard. Comes complete, clean, in "A" condition, flown less than dozen times. Has a minor strap fix done by powerzone.
Lightweight and lofty closed cells wing suitable for water/land/snow. Features Infinity 2.0 bar, cleaner and simplified A/B/Z bridles allowing to
reduce number of pulleys on the wing to only two. Battens on the leading edge, cleaner air intakes and eliminated jet-flaps are sweet improvements
which designers took straight onto Sonic-FR and didn't even make available on the Lotus version.
U2U please.

Argh, wish I had the money--I want one of these. I don't trust "Deluxe" in sizes less than 15 :D
Yeah... I got a kite. Or two...

I ride this kite very rarely since I prefer to get on water anytime there's good wind and my land sessions are extremely rare now. I ride the foils on
water too but mostly for "cool" factor. They look beautiful in the sky. Both Flysurfers and the ARCs. The look "proper" I'd say. Also they're lofty -
they jump high, hang you up there well. And for land and snow the launch time and efforts are so lesser than for inflatables.
On the other hand when it comes to a stupor of "which one to ride" or even worse to later remorse "I wish I took a different wing" - then I'd rather
be minimalistic and blame my abilities and weight and conditions if it didn't work out but overall I'm happier living through simpler choices

I think u need to take about 2 or 300 off your selling prices on your kites. The 10m deluxe is going for around 900 on ebay . And most 2 year or
older leis are being sold at 1/3 their new value. I know we all want a decent amount when we sell but the kite market is not that great for resale.
Interestingly i fly the same kites as u which are flysurfers and the NRG's from liquidforce.

It's easy to love Flysurfers even though I'm riding mostly inflatables now. I won't do drift launch or water landing to a Flysurfer, it feels like too
much abuse to such great wing bathing it.
NRGs...after the Envy they feel so much better - better upwind, adequate bar pressure, bridles done right, higher aspect ratio. I like the 8m and 16m
NRG sizes the most - the 16m which taught me that lightwind kite doesn't need to be 19m or not even 17m size, that a "smaller big kite" is easier to
work, faster to turn and jumps timing is not too far off.

yea the NRG's are great kites, I had slingshot rallys at first but thyre not that great at the edge of the window as far as power is concerned in my
opinion . the NRG puls like 1 size larger as they have kind of a flat profile , they are really good kites, I love my flysurfers but sometimes messing
with those bridle tangles is a pain when u just want to get out and ride. Best thing about then though is thyre a much lighter load to haul on to the
beach and u can fly a size 1 or 2 times smaller.
