Psycho4

// Psycho4…Freestyle Weapon…

Flysurfer Psycho. The synonym for freestyle, performance and a wealth of technology. The Psycho4 raises the bar.. Again. The goal of the Psycho4 development was to combine turning radius, depower, handling and pop into a freestyle machine. Lay it out, unroll the lines, launch.. As soon as you have the Flysurfer Psycho4 in the air, it begs for action. High turning speed, awesome wind range and mega pop. Send you kite into the other half of the window and you will immediately notice the uncompromising lift. But be careful: with such high dynamics like these, you may have to restrain yourself…

// Enormous Depower

The Psycho4 gets its wind range from the new “Triple Depower System”. For the first time, a kite doesn’t solely use changes in the angle of attack and profile indentation for depower, it also reduces the projected area at the same time. How does this work? As soon as you push the bar away, the Psycho4 profile changes into on a pronounced C-form. The projected area decreases, the wingspan gets smaller. And handling? It remains incredibly constant. Thanks to the Triple Depower System, the kite remains completely steerable and direct, despite the bar being pushed away.

// Performance & Reliability

Power is nothing without control. For this reason, we have made certain that the Psycho4 practically never front-stalls. Additionally, it offers very precise and narrow turning performance, predestining the Psycho4 for radical free- and wakestyle. Kiteloops? Easy as pie, you set your own boundaries. The Psycho4 offers more than performance alone, it has huge reserves when it comes to stability and safety. In the case of an emergency, it comes standard with our Full Depower Safety, when activated, the Psycho4 flags out on the 5th line and folds back from the middle of the canopy. Then it flies pressure-less to the ground and can be restarted whenever you want.

// Versatility

Whether on snow, water or land, the Psycho4 feels at home everywhere, just like all our other kites. In addition, you have the possibility of customize the bar pressure exactly according to your personal taste and with the Depower Performance Enhancer adjusting directness of depower was never easier. Immediate depower or more performance, the choice is yours.
