Blade V - OverviewBlade V - Overview
The Flexifoil Blade 5 (V) has combined the very best elements of all the Blade series over the years and has produced a kite with even greater lift and better stability than ever before.

With the Flexifoil Blade 5 (V) flyers will jump higher than ever, and experience the raw power that only this kite can generate, giving pure exhilaration every time they fly the kite.

The all new design pushes more raw power and lift, into a legendary powerful canopy, giving all air junkies the ultimate weapon.

The Flexifoil Blade 5's (V's) high aspect ratio, swept plan form creates a fast crisp turn rate, which combined with a monstrously powerful aerofoil creates insane lift and float, yet it retains the stability loved by all Blade flyers.

The kite's thin profile is fast and efficient. This efficiency is aided by a high cell coupled with internal V ribs to support the profile. The V ribs also reduce the amount of bridle, which minimised the drag in the kite, whilst keeping the wing shape smooth and aerodynamically efficient.

Flyers of previous Flexifoil Blades will notice that the Flexifoil Blade 5 (V) kite turns faster and holds the power better through the turn. They will feel that the kite is very reactive to control inputs and has a more powerful feel giving longer higher floating jumps.

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

Features:
Improved Stability.
Increased float and hangtime.
More power generated through the turn.
Smoother progressive turning.
More static and recreational lift.
Croc-clips secure the bridles for ease of packing.
Bullet proof materials - built to last to withstand the crashes!
Leading gauze mesh covering the leading edge to maintain a stable flight.

The Flexifoil Blade is and has always been the most versatile kite. Its unique characteristics have made it well suited for buggy jumping, freestyle kite landboarding, snowkiting and recreational jumping.

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.

Stable Hooped Planform:
The planform is stable, powerful and helps the kite turn smooth and fast.
Pre-Stretched Unsleeved Dyneema® Bridle:
Excellent strength and low stretch properties combined with a thin diameter creates low drag for a faster kite.

Internal Cross Bracing:
Internal V-ribs across the entire canopy give the kite an increased lifting area, so you get more lift out of your kite than ever before.

Adjustable Cross Bridles:
Allows you to choose your preferred turning speed.

Variable Cell Numbers:
The number of cells in the Flexifoil Blade 5 (V) increase as the sizes get bigger to create a cleaner profile making them faster and able to generate maximum power even in light winds.
