Advanced freestyle action
Boasting explosive radical performance, Version 7 of the FS is the most progressive kite design for advanced freestyle action. Characterised by dynamic vertical lift, you can boost higher, loop harder, and pop aggressively while remaining in control.
Open-C 5 strut design
Tailored to the needs of professional riders, the FS’ open-C 5 strut design has all the traits of a genuine C-kite for advanced action. Selected as the weapon of choice by former World Champion Arthur Guillebert, the FS maintains accessible performance even to those climbing the ranks.
Optimum bar feedback
While remaining incredibly stable and efficient, the FS has a wide angle of attack and comes into play when looping the kite or popping out of the water. Pulley-free bridles achieve direct turning impulses and the optimum bar feedback puts the rider in control of the smooth constant power development.
Explosive lift
The explosive lift is protected by its stable durability under any load, with new panel cuts in the canopy to distribute force more efficiently and make looping even more accessible and fun! The weight is optimised across all sizes and V7 features new XT light fabric in the 14m, reducing the weight of the inflatable structure by 15%.
Better control
The FS is agile and dynamic, yet the thin LE tips and improved deflectors also protect from the risk of bridle wrap. Riders now have even better control when handle passing or performing advanced freestyle moves.
High performance freestyle
If you’re looking to match your own raw power, the FS is the kite of choice to tear down the limits!

Technical Specifications
- High velocity turn
- Wingtip turner
- Powerful turn
The turning characteristics of the FS are optimized for radical boosts as it instantly reacts to steering impulses. During turns, the kite generates grunty power, and you will experience staggering forward momentum in kite loops. The FS is perfect for sending massive mega loops.
- High AR
- Good upwind performance
- Efficient high lift / drag ratio
The 5-Strut high aspect ratio enables the FS to travel upwind readily. It is highly performant throughout the whole wind range thanks to its superior aerodynamics.
- Medium to low sweep
- Explosive power
- Vertical lift
The low wingtip sweep of the FS enhances the radical power of the kite. Thanks to the open C-Design, the kite has a vertical lift while always providing direct control.
