Designers goals
It has been a long wait for the first official sign that a new Speed is coming and now it is finally here. We are pleased and proud to present to you the next step or rather, jump, in Flysurfer development: the Speed4 – in sizes 8.0 and 10.0m²!
First things first: The Speed4 in 8.0 and 10.0m² are unbelievably versatile. Despite the enormous performance potential, the Speed4 is still suitable for beginners in the lower wind ranges but still a true air-time machine in the upper wind range.
Unequaled performance – at your demand
Without exaggeration: The Speed4 is the best performing kite that we have ever built. Whether in low end, turningspeed, relaunch, jumping characteristics or depower… Almost everywhere we have been able to set new limits. Yet it’s performance is more accessible than ever – for every rider. It starts when you pull up the Speed4: The kite inflates incredibly fast and provides security from the first moment onwards. Whether fully powered up or fully depowered, a Speed4 stays stable in the sky. And thanks to the balanced handling not only your jumps are much easier, but also their landings.
In the air
There is so much that cannot be put into words, but instead has to be experienced. The Speed4 flying feeling is one of those things. More direct and faster turning performance, a glide ratio that you only experience with Speeds, the now extremely short depower throw, the lift, the control…We needed six months just for the fine-tuning the Speed4 in order to reach this result: It just feels plain great to fly a Speed4.
Simplicity
Our vision is not only to improve our kites, but to further shape the sport of kiting. What has remained is a simple and effective system. Lowest possible weight, smallest pack dimensions, quickest setup and stow-away and enormous durability … The Speed4 is more effective, lighter and more compact than anything else we have ever built. We were even able to achieve a bridle that is almost one-third lighter and remove an entire bridle row. This not only makes kiting easier, but results in even better performance.

The kite is really easy to set up and to launch by yourself, one of the greatest things about the set up is that you don't have to bring a pump to the beach.
Packing up the kite is really easy as well, as long as you do it the right way. A lot of people get scared by seeing all the lines, this isn't a problem at all, as long as you pack it up properly!

Here are the most outstanding features from my test. I appreciate its behaviour with more clarity and accuracy.
This kite is very appropriate for kiteloops with powerful and fast turns. Very agile. It allows practice in water, Earth and snow with the same kite (Snowkiting, kitesurfing, kitebuggy). It has a great beat and generates much apparent wind. Large sustained jumps with a good stability.

Son las características más notables de la prueba del test en las que he podido apreciar su comportamiento con más claridad y exactitud.
Esta cometa es muy apropiada para realizar kiteloops con giros muy potentes y rápidos. Muy ágil. Permite practicar en agua, tierra y nieve con la misma cometa (Snowkite,
