This episode of Back to the Old School features the Flexifoil Psycho: the frantic little brother of the Stranger. I bought my Psycho (the yellow/purple version) when i saw the VHS at a kiteshop. My other Psycho (Red/Blue) was a gift from Pierre Terbogt. Both kites are modified (turbo bridle/yoyo stoppers/tailweight/w-trickline) to make it a bit less crazy in normal flight and to add some modern trick capabilities. The video was shot on the lovely Terschelling beach. Enjoy!

So, fertig

Fliegen konnte ich ihn leider noch nicht. Der Wind war nicht vorhanden
Dann eben an einem anderen Tag...

Viele Grüße

Nice! I will put it on the builds page!

The main thing i like about trick kites is that each kite has it's own character. Both positive and negative quirks make for a unique feel. That's why i like to fly lot's of different kites. To me, the idea of the search of the 'perfect' kite is boring.

The classic R-Sky Nirvana Standard is a great kite for windy days. Loud, slow and precise. Might be one of the best panel layouts in the industry, especially with the dark grey instead of black. Flown at the Zandmotor beach near Kijkduin, Holland. Enjoy!

After seeing the Prism Trickshow VHS and visiting the Prism demo in Almere i had 2 holy grails: i wanted to have both the Eclipse and the Illusion. Preferably in teal. It took about 16 years to find a teal Eclipse but i was able to buy a used teal-fade illusion from a dutch pilot in 1998. The sail is worn and knackered but it still flies very nice. Last week, on a lovely evening, i rode my bicycle to the beach near Ter Heijde and the wind was perfect for the good old illy. Enjoy.

Ich habe Reverse Taz gesehen

It's kinda like a snappy double axel.

Took the good old Gem for a spin at the amazing Maasvlakte beach. Wind was barely enough but had a blast anyway. It needs some (a lot!) re-adjustment input wise since it’s so much different compared to recent, straight LE kites. Enjoy!

Yep, great colors

Almost spring! The temperature is rising and the days are getting longer. Beautiful morning so time for a early session with the V SUL at Scheveningen beach in very light wind. Enjoy!

Zitat von MP3

Day&Night Variante mit mod. Schleppkante, Cuben Leitkante und DPP Bestabung.

Nice one! Added the photo to the builds page.

Zitat von Ulzburger

The actual reason for this kite design was a new idea for the technical design process of a trick kite. That's why he is called "POC - Proof Of Concept". Whether he also has the flying qualities I wanted in the design, we will still see.

I like the name as well. Hope to try it 1 time.

Zitat von Ulzburger

Hier mein 2017er-Projekt. Man muss ja mindestens einen unfertigen Proto in der Tasche haben, sonst wird es ja langweilig

P.S. Ingos Magnet stand Pate bei der Auswahl der Farben. -> "Magnet" - Bauplan

Nice! What is the designgoal for this one? More towards radical freestyle/tricks?

The plan/specs for the UL version of the New Kite on The Blok are now available: LINK!

Went for a bike ride last week and ended up at the beautiful Maasvlakte beach. It's located at the end of a huge man made industrial harbour area. Winds were smooth so i stretched the legs with little 100Sixteen STD session. Enjoy!
