Description

The Flexifoil Blade 4 (IV) has combined the very best elements of all Blade series over the years and has produced a kite with even greater lift and better stability than ever before.

Designed with a lightweight and new tuneable bridle, the kite can be adjusted to suit the rider's style and maximise the wind conditions.

 

This kite is not for the occasional recreational flyer, it is for the more experienced traction flyers who want to feel real adrenaline when flying a kite.

Particularly ideal for kite buggying, landboard and snow kiting, the Flexifoil Blade 4 (IV) is available as a four line kite with handles or with a control bar.

 

If you want to own only one kite for all traction kite activities, this is it.

Handles for 4-line use - ABS Handles with parking loops and hard-wearing grip, intergral safety system with wrist strap and safety leash makes for tangle-free release and means kite is more easily retrievable.

Reviews

Its a jumping machine! David Turk

WOW! WOW! WOW! Just get one! If jumping is your thing then the Blade 4 must be your machine! The 4.9m just blows any other kite of the same size out of the sky! For buggy jumping this kite has everything you need. Power, float and speed through the turns.

Switch it to the other bridle setting also and I managed to get 41mph out of it. It does everything you need - buy a set of these and you will not be disappointed.

The Triple A bridle system has saved me so much money as I can use the same kite for all of my buggy disciplines.

Jump! Jump! Jump! - Ed Slater

I have never ever gone so high! What can I say! Quality is excellent which is what you need when you are 20ft in the air with your landboard. Speed is improved and the float is unreal!

I use both the handles and control bar on mine and both work effectively for most conditions and suit my riding style.

Colour coded linesets aid in the quick setup of the kite and the quality is second to none! Even the bag is cool!
