New kite FLYSURFER Soul4

After two years, FLYSURFER introduces the new fourth generation of the Soul ram-air kite. Let’s take a look at what it looks like and what’s new.

Overall, the designers have focused on further enhancing the new model’s key strengths without negatively affecting its other characteristics. Intuitive handling, maximum stability and easy restarts provide the foundation for rapid progression for beginners, while also allowing advanced kiters to focus fully on performing tricks. Combined with faster turning, longer hang time and softer landings from jumps, the new model takes things another level further and expands its versatility and huge range of use across different conditions, riding styles and forms of kiting.

Design

At first glance, the Soul4 stands out with its relatively clean and elegant design, featuring the brand’s new Y-shaped logo.

Jumps

Easy-to-time take-offs with strong upward pull and long hang time without any tendency to overshoot, combined with significantly easier landings.

Performance

Accessible, smooth power delivery combined with efficient flight and energy utilization. Excellent upwind performance with less downwind drift.

Handling and Feel

Intuitive and comfortable from the very first moment. Stable and precise positioning in the wind window, excellent resistance to backstalling, clean turning behavior and easily manageable power delivery.

Reliability

Easy launches and restarts, fast inflation and an integrated drainage system. Durable bridle lines with high shape stability and low maintenance requirements.

Construction Improvements

Refined fourth-generation construction - SOUL4 is based on the continuous development of proven construction principles. All components are designed for durability, ease of use and consistent performance.

Optimized aerodynamics and profile balance - Refinements to the profile shape and load distribution result in even better upwind performance, stable power generation and efficient power delivery throughout the wind window.

Finely tuned bridle and handling - The precisely tuned bridle setup improves feedback and reduces bar pressure. The result is noticeably smoother handling combined with high stability.

Efficient inflation and flight characteristics - Improved airflow management and structural stability enable fast inflation and controlled flight characteristics from the very beginning, especially in light wind.

Versatile, durable, travel-friendly and low-maintenance. It adapts perfectly to your riding style and the conditions to deliver equally impressive performance every time. FLYSURFER Soul4 is an elevator not only when it comes to jumping, but also when it comes to progression, which it significantly accelerates thanks to its unique characteristics.

I have no doubt that FLYSURFER will once again live up to its promises and that the new Soul4 will shine on the spot not only with its interesting design, but above all with its performance.
