In my reply I compare the FS against LEI, as there is no point to compare against fixed bridles foils.
I dont know exactly what the flysurfers have but one thing I know now:
I sold my Pulse1 7m and P3 10m to buy inflatos. Now I am not sure why I did that. I have some regrets
I tought it would be safer on water and easier to relaunch, but nothing beats the Pulse for water relaunch.
I even find easier to water relaunch my SA2 15m than my Best Nemesis HP 12m. I just poll both rear lines, the kite backwards and I flip it.
As for the Best 12m, it kind of stick to the water and I have to pull very hard on one line. I am not sure it will work in deep water, may be it's me
and I need more practice.
The only advantage I find to inflatos, is the turning speed, and it eats gusts better. But with the Psycho4, that may be another story.
Anyway I am 90% of the time using my SA2 15m, so I wonder why do I have other kites, and now the more I think it about it, is I should stick with FS
So the P4 may be my next purchase. Saving $$$ again. My wife will not understand.
Yesterday, for a rare day, that my 15m was too much I was on the Best 12m. After a jump, I crashed the kite, it did reverse and I had to go to the
kite to undo that mess.
May be my old Psycho3 10m would not have done this. Anyway with a foil, when some bridles are mixed up, you can still fly back to the shore.
And the most important for my style of riding, I find that tubes don't pull much for their sizes. I am staring to realize that I like very much the
raw power of foils.

. How would a quiver mix of blades/crossfires compare to a 3 flysurfer quiver?
