The Speed 3 was massive – and after years of development, its successor the Speed 4 Lotus is finally available. The kite is a step forward in materials with the incredible new Lotus fabric (30% lighter than the Deluxe fabric, increased air tightness and durability, repels water, sand and dirt) and design (super lightweight steering). This is what FS have to say about the Speed 4 Lotus:
The Speed4 Lotus is the most performance orientated kite that we have ever had at Flysurfer. The Speed product line has become a synonym for pure performance, ever since its introduction in 2001. A sleek and stretched out machine ensuring low-end performance, maximum upwind ability and airtime. The key to the sustained success of the Speed line was the continuous improvement of the overall performance – “power is nothing without control” could have been the slogan for the Speed3. Turning ability, handling, stability and depower have reached a very high level. With the Speed4 Lotus, we were able to gain another step in both “power” as well as “control”. The improved design and profiles in conjunction with the new Lotus cloth push the boundaries of low-end, upwind, lift and hangtime one more time.
