Superfly water human kite

Post by CoFree »

Ok guy
This is something that I am thinking about getting for this summer.
The river house should be done and i'll need a new toy.
So I need you guys to let me know what you think.

The Superfly™ Wakekite combines kite boarding with wakeboarding and waterskiing to create an amazing new big-air experience behind the boat. The inflatable wakekite provides the rider with longer duration jumps and softer "reduced-gravity" landings. With more time in the air, riders can invent new tricks, never before possible. The wakekite is designed for solid intermediate to advanced riders to be able to control the kite flight, so they're in control throughout the ride. Use the wakekite with a wakeboard, combo/wakeskis, slalom skis, and more. No tower is necessary, and small wakes still provide a great opportunity for air. Multiple safety features designed into the Superfly include shackle release, handle release, and kite line release. These packages come complete with the inflatable kite, a wakekite carbon fiber handle, all necessary lines, pump with PSI gauge, and user manual.

The smaller Superfly 5.5 is designed to provide less lift and lower arm fatigue. It works with riders of lighter weight (80 lbs. and up), yet still provides a great ride to full-sized adults looking for less lift than the 9.0. Riders over 135 lbs. may graduate to the Superfly 9.0 for greater air. Both require solid intermediate riding skills on the surface craft of choice (wakeboard, water ski, kneeboard, etc.).

Yeah man, I'll definitely have to give that a go! Since I taught you everything you know about wake boarding, I guess I'll have to teach you how to fly one of these! :D :D I think we need to get the boat refurbished soon!!!!!!

Man, I don't know about how wide the lake is, but I could see you flying high in the right wind gust with one of those things. It'd be another Jack Ass movie all over starring CoFree!! LOL :D

I think its actually going to be safer than our other idea of putting a zip line all the way across the river! It would have needed to start at about 60' in the air to get some good zip! :D

THESE ARE SOOO FUN!!

My buddy has one, when you cross the wake and get air you just take off. If your coming to land and the boat has turned you can almost guarantee your going to eat it, unless your some amazing wake boarder.

If your decent at wake boarding and water sports, you will have so much fun with it!
