VMG
Hydrofoil, Race
Der VMG: revolutionär, hocheffizient, extrem schnell. Der FLYSURFER Technologieträger ist ein Meisterwerk der deutschen Ingenieurskunst und speziell für den olympischen Hydrofoil-Kitesport entwickelt. Getestet im Wettkampf, unantastbar auf dem Kurs, simpel in der Wartung. Steigere deine Leistung und lass die Konkurrenz hinter dir!
VMG … born on the racecourse
Der VMG ist die Revolution im Hydrofoil-Rennsport, der Höhepunkt einer 5-jährigen Entwicklungszeit, der Innovationsträger unter den geschlossenzelligen Hochleistungskites. Die Mission war es einen extrem schnellen und einfach zu fahrenden Race-Kite zu entwickeln, der die nächste Generation von Kitern und Seglern inspiriert. FLYSURFER Spitzentechnologie für Top-Athleten die eine Olympische Goldmedaille holen wollen und sich durch den VMG im Wettkampf einen echten Vorteil verschaffen werden.
Unser R&D Mastermind Benedikt Boelli engagierte unsere FLYSURFER Top-Fahrer, um den nächsten großen Schritt in der Foil-Kite-Entwicklung zu machen und ein revolutionäres Zwei-Ebenen (A,B) Konzept zu realisieren. Der VMG ändert hocheffizient seinen Anstellwinkel, im Gegensatz zur herkömmlichen Änderung der Profilwölbung über die Z-Ebene. Der gesamte Flügel wurde umfassend neu definiert: modifizierte Profile, extrem leichte Materialien und die neuartige, durch Glasfaserstäbe verstärkte Struktur. Die Konstruktion ist auf das höchste Maß an Steifigkeit optimiert, um die hauchdünne dehnungsarme Kevlar-Waage perfekt zu unterstützen und den Luftwiderstand auf ein Minimum zu reduzieren. Boelli hat außerdem die Zellenanzahl, sowie die Aspekt-Ratio von jedem Kite fein abgestimmt und deren Attribute an die Anforderungen des jeweiligen Windbereichs angepasst.
Der minimalistische VMG glänzt durch außergewöhnliche Einfachheit und unfassbare Amwind-Leistung. Die Komplexität des Langzeitgebrauchs von hochgestreckten Race-Kites ist eine der größten Herausforderungen des Hydrofoil-Rennsports. Nur die Athleten, die ihre Ausrüstung gut warten, bleiben wettbewerbsfähig. Wir haben uns daher stark auf eine drastische Reduzierung der Trimmempfindlichkeit konzentriert. Der VMG spielt in einer eigenen Liga, in der es darum geht, wie linear die Verwindung beim Steuern des Kites von der Mitte auf die Flügelspitzen verteilt wird. Die Waageleinen verändern sich homogen, das Instandhalten wird wesentlich erleichtert. Weniger Zeit zum Trimmen bedeutet mehr Zeit auf dem Wasser!
FLYSURFER bedankt sich ganz besonders bei den Teammitgliedern Theo de Ramecourt, Nico Landauer und Florian Gruber, welche maßgeblich am Entwicklungsprozess des VMG’s beteiligt waren, ein Kite der auf der Rennstrecke geboren ist.

Der Reo ist ein ikonisches Modell in der Kitesurf-Welt, entwickelt für kompromissloses Wellenreiten und bekannt für herausragende Leistung und sagenhaftes Feedback.
Die einzigartigen Flugeigenschaften und die vielseitige Leistung des Reo ermöglicht es Dir, das Potenzial jeder Welle zu maximieren, von on-shore-Slop bis hin zu Cross-offshore Bedingungen mit fetten Barrels.
Schnelles direktes Handling und wahnsinnige Drifteigenschaften mit riesiger De-Power bedeuten für dich, dass Du genau wählen kannst, wo genau Du dich auf einer Welle platzieren willst, um den nächsten Move zu machen - die Lippe schreddern, einen Abschnitt auslassen, fette Turns ziehen oder dich genau ins Wellenface setzen.
Variable Waagegeometrie (VBG)
Schnell und einfach an die persönlichen Vorlieben anzupassen, ohne zusätzliche Leinen montieren oder demontieren zu müssen.
Diese Waageeinstellungen erweitern den Einsatzbereich des Kites und bringen ein weiteres Maß an Vielseitigkeit in diese herausragende Konstruktion.
Einstellung 1 / Offshore:
Ein ausgewogenes und raffiniertes Gefühl mit guter Vorwärtsgeschwindigkeit perfekt für die meisten Bedingungen, und hervorragend in Cross-Shore- bis hin zu Offshore-Bedingungen.
Der Kite geht depowered weiter an den Windfensterrand und driftet mit, während Du die Line runter fährst.
Die Offshore-Einstellung ist der obere Knoten auf den VBG Pigtails.
Einstellung 2 /Onshore:
Der Kite Sitzt sitzt etwas weiter hinten im Windfenster und nimmt die Onshore-Bedingungen mit Leichtigkeit in Angriff.
Erhöhter Bardruck verbessert das Gefühl des Kites wenn eine Welle mit dem Wind schiebt.
Wenn Du ein etwas satteres Feedback des Kites bevorzugen, könnte dies die Einstellung für Dich sein.
Die Onshore-Einstellung ist der untere Knoten an den VBG Pigtails.
Die Wichtigkeit der Aerodynamik
Wir verstehen die Wichtigkeit der Aerodynamik und Gewichtsersparnis vor allem auf einem Kite, wo Drifteigenschaften zwingend erforderlich sind.
Jedes Detail wurde im Bereich Leichtbau zum Optimum perfektioniert und dabei die Haltbarkeit und Integrität erhalten, die Du von einem Ozonprodukt erwartest.
Unhooked Fahrer werden sich auf dem Reo wie zu Hause fühlen. Er fliegt und gleitet im Einklang deiner Moves mit.
Trimme ihn einfach mit dem Adjuster vor dem Aushaken. Wenn du häufig unhooked unterwegs bist, empfehlen wir, die Vorleinen der Steuerleinen auf die längere Position einzustellen.
Um den Bardruck und die Drehgeschwindigkeit an deine persönlichen Vorlieben anzupassen, verwende die Anknüpfoptionen der Steuerleinen an den Flügelenden des Kites.
Einfacher Relaunch
Der Relaunch ist schnell und einfach - durch Einschlagen der Bar oder durch Nutzung der Relaunch-Bällen auf den Vorleinen der Steuerleinen rollt der Reo im Handumdrehen vom Wasser. Dies ist besonders hilfreich, wenn Du in der Impact-Zone der Wellen steckst und möglichst schnell dort weg musst!

Der Alpha ist unser leistungsstarker inflatable Single Strut Kite.
Es ist einfach zu händeln, unglaublich leicht und sehr effektiv - ein Gewinn für jedes Quiver.
Die zweite Version unseres single strut Kite Alpha V2 bietet erstaunliche Fahr- und Hydrofoil-Leistung für Einsteiger bis fortgeschrittene Rider, während das leichte Single Strut Design perfekt für Reisende ist, die auft Gewicht und Packvolumen achten müssen (Der 12er Alpha V2 wiegt beispielsweise gerade mal 4,3kg).
Der Alpha V2 verfügt über unsere neue "Continuous Curve Leading Edge Construction". Jedes Segment ist gebogen, um einen perfekten glatten Bogen von Tip zu Tip zu bilden, im Gegensatz zu geraden Segmenten mit abgewinkelten Gelenken. Eine Quersegelformung wurde integriert, um das Segeltuch perfekt der neuen Fronttube mit kontinuierlicher Kurvung anzupassen. Diese neuesten Konstruktionsmerkmale reduzieren den Windwiderstand und sorgen für eine sauberere Oberfläche im wichtigsten Bereich des Tragflügels. Das Ergebnis ist ein weniger turbulenter Luftstrom, der sich positiv auf das Verhältnis von Auftrieb zu Luftwiderstand auswirkt und die Gesamtleistung erhöht.
Der Alpha V2 verfügt auch über unsere neue Rip-Stop-Materialkombination. Das neue Rip-Stop-Canopy-Material verfügt über eine fortschrittliche Ultra-Flex-Beschichtung, die das Feedback bei böigeren Bedingungen verbessert und für ruhigere Flugeigenschaften sorgt. Das neue technische Rip-Stop-Dacron ist super robust und wird an der Fronttube und den Struts verwendet. Er verbessert die Festigkeit, Haltbarkeit und Langlebigkeit.
Ein brandneues Fast Flow One-Pump-Inflationssystem macht das Einrichten und Verpacken schnell und einfach. Es verfügt über ein Einpunkt-Aufpumpen / Entleeren und einen hohen Luftdurchsatz zwischen den Struts und der Fronttube sowie Clips zum Abdichten der Schläuche, um einen unerwünschten Luftstrom im Schadensfall zu verhindern.
Variable Bridle-Geometrie
Schnell und einfach zu ändern, ohne dass zusätzliche Leinen hinzugefügt oder entfernt werden müssen. Diese Bridle-Einstellungen erweitern die Windrange des Kites und verleiht ihm noch mehr Vielseitigkeit.
Freeride Setting
Die ideale Balance zwischen Leistung und Gefühl für Allround-Freeriden, Foilen und Wellenreiten in den meisten Bedingungen. Die Freeride-Einstellung ist der obere Knoten der VBG-Pigtails (Werkseinstellung).
Freestyle / Onshore
Der Kite sitzt etwas weiter hinten im Windfenster, mit erhöhtem Bardruck und Feedback. Wer sich aushakt oder ein etwas stärkeres Bargefühl bevorzugt, für den könnte dies die richtige Einstellung sein. Es ist auch passend für Onshore-Waveriding. Die Freestyle / Onshore-Einstellung ist der untere Knoten bei den VBG Pigtails.
Twintip Rider werden von den Sprung- und Kiteloop Eigenschaften des Alpha V2 überrascht sein. Er hat einen smoothen Lift und Hangtime bei sehr präzisem Feedback.
Das leichte Design sorgt für eine unglaubliche Low-End-Leistung, was den Alpha V2 zu einer sehr wettbewerbsfähigen Wahl für die Bereiche Leichtwind Freeride und Hydrofoil macht. Der Power to Depower Stroke ist progressiv und dynamisch genug, um für Wenden und Halsen mit einem Hydrofoil einen gleichmäßig Lift zu geben. Für das Foilen in Starkwind und Kabbel macht der Drift der kleineren Größen des Alpha, die mit kurzen Leinen geflogen, viel Spaß.
Im Shorebreak ist der Alpha perfekt für Wellenreiten im Drift-Stil, da er augfrgund seines Leichtgewichts schnell mit dem Rider mitfloated. Das Handling ist direkt und reaktionsschnell. Der Alpha ist nicht so stark auf Wellen ausgerichtet wie der Reo, bietet aber dennoch eine solide Leistung unter Side-Shore- und On-Shore-Bedingungen.
Der Water Relaunch ist einfach. Durch einfaches Drehen der Bar oder Verwenden der Relaunch balls an den Leiderlines rollt sich der Kite wie automatisch in die Neustartposition.
Verreisen? Der Alpha passt in jedes Gepäck, es ist unglaublich leicht, hat ein minimales Packmaß und hat ein sehr breit gefächertes Einsatzgebiet.
Der Alpha V2 wird standardmäßig mit einer ultraleichten Kompressortasche geliefert, die sich perfekt für unterwegs und zum täglichen Schutz Ihres Kites eignet. Die Tasche ist einfach zu bedienen und komprimiert einen Kite auf eine minimale Größe. In Kombination mit dem technical bag passen mehrere Kites in eine Tragetasche.

DESCRIPTION
The Religion is the definition of a high performance wave strapless kite and continues to meet the needs of the rider with ease. At its Y27 edition the Religion has transformed together with the evolution of riding waves with a kite. There are not many kites out there that can drift like the Religion allowing you to ride the wave instead of being pulled by the kite.The new Religion sits deeper in the window and provides immense power in the low end wind range. The huge depower will kill the harness pressure when bottom turning and lining up for a big vertical turn on the wave or for more control during your strapless freestyle maneuvers. You will immediately feel linked to the Religion and its impressive turning speed and reactivity.
FEATURES
Religion ultra rigid frame.
Front-line trim setting with two options: wave / freestyle-wave.
Quick Air Flow Valve, with special moulded protection cap and reduced dimensions.
Bridle anti-tangle device.
Diamond grid technology.
Wide tips for extra maneuverability.
All the kites are equipped with 2 pulleys to handle the strong gusty conditions, improve the stability and to increase the wind range.
The Carve is a powerful, reactive and controllable kite, ideal for carving up a wave face, tucking into a barrel or boosting strapless tricks. Engineered with a stable, lower aspect ratio design for fast pivot turns and excellent drift, the Carve has an extremely direct feel in both bar pressure and steering initiation. For 2023, we've put the Carve back into its wave riding category. Refined bridling for a longer, more progressive travel means the kite feels smoother and more responsive throughout the full depower range. It is still reactive when you sheet out – to the very end. Improved overall balance also enhances drift, so when you're surfing, it glides down the line, waiting for your bar input. More intuitive control - especially when the kite's not visible on a big bottom turn, cut back, or in a barrel - means you can focus 100% on the surf. The Carve has a slightly reduced leading-edge diameter and thinned-out profiles. This gives the kite smoother power delivery, improves the high-end wind range, and helps you ride deeper in the pocket for longer. The kite won't pull you aggressively off the rail, and you'll have softer landings when doing big jumps. The 2023 Carve will also relaunch faster in critical situations. We've introduced lighter bladders in all sizes and a lighter 2-ply canopy reinforcement. This reduces weight and helps improve the turning speed in light wind while maintaining the Carve's surf-tough durability. The Carve now flies faster, generating more power and board speed. It rockets upwind. Experienced riders will benefit from the kite's impressive power and efficiency, while intermediate riders will find it offers a smoother, more user-friendly ride. Freeride and Strapless Freestylers will love the improved hangtime and catch for kite loops and softer landings.

Any wave, anywhere; this is your go-to surf performance kite.
Wave riding specific design
Improved low end and wider performance range
Transverse sail shaping for cleaner and tighter canopy
Super direct with improved response and range before luffing
Instant power, faster handling, huge de-power and insane drift
WHO IS THE REO V7 FOR?
Good intermediates and beyond. It’s faster, smoother and has a bigger range. This is a kite for riders with waves on their mind. The quick turning, crisp control and excellent drift performance also works excellently for freeride foilers who need a kite that will remain highly responsive in as much of the wind window as possible.
WHAT’S NEW ON THE V7?
New refined design and sail control
Transverse sail shaping results in a cleaner aerofoil for increased performance
Reduced drag and more drive through the window
Smoother handling in gusty conditions
Improved low end
Thinner bridles than on V6 for reduced parasitic drag and weight
Being more ruggedly built than the Ultra-X version, the meatier material on the V7 is better suited to riders who may regularly rig up and launch / land on more abrasive beaches. The smallest sizes may also be preferable for anyone riding in stronger wind conditions when the extra durability can add peace of mind, at which point the lighter weight materials on the Ultra-X will have less effect on overall performance.
Ultra-light, ultra-quick, ultra-responsive and ultra-reliable
Applying new but proven lightweight and stiff performance materials, tested across a three year period, has led to the next evolution in the Reo’s stunning legacy.
Next level wave riding specific design
High performance, light weight materials for ultimate handling in surf
Super fast and direct feedback, even at the edge of the window
Mind blowing drift and slack line control
Transverse sail shaping for tighter canopy and huge range
WHO IS IT FOR?
This second model released alongside the Reo V7 is a razor sharp, laser focused wave kite designed for riders searching for ultimate performance.
The Ultra-X model is designed around the same transversely shaped canopy and air frame skeleton as the Reo V7 but features a 20% lighter dacron and 17% lighter canopy material. This may be one of the lightest pure wave kites on the market, but it’s not all about weight.
As ever our primary focus was on aerodynamic performance and the Ultra-X is stiffer throughout, offering increased drift, reduced nose diving at the edge of the window in radical surf and lightning fast, super-crisp response.
Drift performance and responsiveness at the edge of the window in slack line situations is perhaps the biggest appeal to those searching for true surf performance. While the Reo has always been a pure wave performance machine, all of these lightweight performance handling gains offer huge advantages for the freeride kitefoiler, too.
BUILDING FROM THE V7 BASE
Broken down, the Ultra-X is built around the new V7 framework. There have been many subtle tweaks to stitching lines and panels applied to these designs since the V6 model, but the biggest improvement in canopy tautness has been achieved thanks to transverse sail shaping on the leading edge, improving your sense of sail control.
Applying the experience of our paragliding design colleagues, the V7 framework features an extra seam in the sail running close to the leading edge, which allows for more true 3D shaping.
Not only have we managed to add more profile curvature, we’ve also added more strength in the high lift zone thanks to that extra seam.

DETAILS
DUOTONE DICE 2019
Der DICE ist ein vielseitiger Kite für alle, die sowohl Freestyle-Tricks ausführen, als auch Spaß in den Wellen haben wollen. Mit größerem Radius Profil, leichtem Delta-Shape und neu gestalteter, etwas dickerer Leading-Edge ist der DICE ein progressiver Freestyle-Kite, der beim Ausführen von Tricks für unglaublichen Pop und großartigen Slack sorgt. Für die kleineren Größen unter 10m wurde die strukturelle Steifigkeit erhöht um ein Vertwisten zu verhindern. Dadurch sind sie für jede Wind-Geschwindigkeit geeignet - perfekt für Rekordhöhen und extreme Loops. Der Wing-Tip-Bereich wurde letztes Jahr verbessert, um dynamischere Turns und verbessertes Handling zu ermöglichen. Dies ermöglicht es dir höher zu springen und bei Loops mehr Kontrolle zu haben. Außerdem wird der DICE dadurch sehr effektiv in der Welle. Mit seiner extrem direkten Steuerung ist der Kite zu Hause bei Cross-Onshore-Bedingungen, wo du dem Kite "down the line" folgen musst. Durch ausgezeichnete Drift-Fähigkeiten ist er auch bei Cross-Offshore-Bedingungen zu Hause. Je nach Style oder Präferenz kann er mit 4 oder 5 Leinen geflogen werden, und dazu gibt es noch Optionen zum Optimieren des Handlings. Die Hard-Einstellung hat jetzt ein 20mm längeres Pigtail, was sie zu einem perfekten Setup für Freestyle/Wakestyle-Moves macht und massiven Slack bietet. Außergewöhnlicher Pop und Release für unglaubliche Freestyle-Performance und dynamisches Handling für das Wave-Riding: „Roll the DICE“ und du hast einen Gewiner.
Sizes: 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14
