Conclusion
Performance kite with good light wind foiling & big air characteristics.
Tested the Fury with a hydrofoil in light wind and a twintip above 16 knots. For the hydrofoil. We liked user range of the Fury. In light wind conditions the Peter Lynn Fury 13m performed pretty stable with a soft power control. In it's high end range, above 16 knots, we took a twintip board and the Fury became a big air kite with an explosive lift and sheet / go power.
Rider profile?
We believe the Fury 13m is suitable for riders who like to combine foiling in light winds and high performance jumping if the wind picks up.

Safety system
Hard to release without kite pressure, try the safety set up before you go out!
Kite stability
The Fury like to seek the edge of the windwindow, makes upwind tacking easy, but needs more flying experience in gusty winds
Kite re-launch
Easy relaunch, backward relaunch possible (pulling steering lines with light winds)
Total depower
The Fury has a large range, with the hydrofoil in low winds and twintip above 16 knots a great big air kite
Windrange
Oldskool
Glide phase
Above 16 knots, make sure you pump the leading edge real hard!
High-end
long depower stroke, sheet & go control above 16 knots
Lift
pretty explosive in the high end wind conditions
Low-end
Used the kite in 8 knots and a hydrofoil Tip: add 3m adjustment lines
Wave
Turning circle
The Fury is best in locked position and ride. Turning takes a bit time than a low aspect ratio kite
Feedback at edge of wind window
On the edge light barfeel in low end conditions, high end stronger feedback on the bar
Reaction to steering action
The Fury likes to be locked in one position and control through sheet & go power. A bit delay in the steering action
Steering with low line tension
Drift
Good drift and the Fury likes to widen its wind window. This combination makes the Fury stable in gusty winds, big gusts need a bit experience of the rider
Race
Acceleration
Likes to accelerate to the wind window, nice sheet and go power if locked in one position
Going upwind
Widens its window
