Fulcrum.85 SUL Designed By Carl Robertshaw in Collaboration with Jon Trennepohl and Ramlal Tien

The Fulcrum.85 Super Ultra Light for no/low wind is the new addition to the Fulcrum family. Utilising the same cutting edge design approach while further refining the details, we have condensed the essence of the Fulcrum into an even more focused quad line sport kite - dialling it in to a higher frequency. Scaling the design expands its trick capably, generating faster rotations with greater ease and agility. Combinations of tricks with Dead Launches and Fades are standard. Yo-Yo’s, Flick-Flacks, Lazy Suzans, Flat Spins / 540’s, and even 720’s are all easily accessible. Forward and reverse speed is exhilarating. Turn rate is incredible. Change of direction is sharp and immediate. The Fulcrum.85 is simply awesome to fly. The Fulcrum.85 retains all the finesse and subtlety of the larger model with the same exacting precision, solid tracking and huge wind-window. You feel the same positive feedback on the lines with less pull, making it simple for the newcomer to fly - thanks to the 3D sail - allowing the kite to launch from any orientation. Like the larger model, the Fulcrum.85 benefits from the interchangeable SkyShark carbon spar combinations. The worlds most capable sport kite, evolved.
