.7. Jet fLAp teChNoLoGy
Most FLYSURFER kites are equipped with the trend-setting JET FLAP Technology (JFT).
Air is conducted from the bottom sail (pressure area) to the top sail (low-pressure area)
and is blown out there with higher speed. The connection is established through jet shaped
channels, which are located in the rear section of the wing.
When increasing the angle-of-attack, the danger of airflow stall will be minimized.
The result of the delayed stall is a higher lift per m². Furthermore, the JET FLAPs decrease
luffing, due to their elevator characteristic.
.8. Nose vALves
Your FLYSURFER Kite uses special nose valves, which effectively prevent the profile from
denting when depowering. The result is a larger wind window, because of less kite-resistance
when depowering. Thus, the performance is enhanced. The power/m² is higher and the
downwind pull is reduced, which again increases the flight speed and upwind performance.
The bottom line: kiting is more fun!
. RIGGING of the KIte
Attaching the flying-lines:
The kites are delivered with a fully
assembled bar. But in case you ever
have to remove the bar, please observe
the correct reassembly.
All three leader lines have the same
length, if the trimmer is open and the
bar is fully powered up. Thus the trim
on the bar can be easily controlled.
