J'approuve ce qu'il a dit sauf cette phrase : Just for reference I did not like FS kites before - i did not like FS SOUL I always prefer LEI to foil kite /when LEI flyes/ but this PEAK 4 is for me biggest change in kiting since 2006 "bow" kite.
Je pense que la Soul est le plus grand changement suivi de la Peak4,,,

I can give feedback of my own. The more i fly kite the more i like it. Its in some sense most revolutionary thing in kiting in many years. Peak 3 was good kite but it was tool for very special purpose - go uphill. Very small package - very stable - no overflying - best hang on zenith in almost no wind. But thats was it. Very slow turning - and poor L/D /which doesnt matter going uphill on back wind/ - and easy to collapse in wind holes or rotors.
Peak 4 is MULTITUDE time faster kite to turn - it turn equal to wave LEI kite size to size - but its more powerfull size to size at the same time. Peak 3 6m has turning speed about 14m Lei kite.
Peak 4 5 /which is actualy 5,5/ is faster than NEO 7. It hold shape in luls and rotors thanks to flexible "battens" it flys much more forward in WW it has best zenith stability ever and generate power like proper kite. It has INSTANT total depower in whatever flight mode and speed. It is also lightest kite on market - lighter than BRM cloud and other foilkites in UL fabric.
Just for reference I did not like FS kites before - i did not like FS SOUL I always prefer LEI to foil kite /when LEI flyes/ but this PEAK 4 is for me biggest change in kiting since 2006 "bow" kite.
If it at start from water just SO SO /as Horst show/ i will use it as all season kite - Hydrofoil and Snow. Its freeride kite dream come true.
Thanks Armin you made one hell of KITE!
