Glyde Watersports brought Flite’s Series 6 to the Minneapolis Boat Show (Jan 22–25), offering Midwest riders one of the first regional chances to see and demo the updated lineup. The dealer showcased what’s new in Series 6, RACE and ULTRA L3 additions, updated wings, and the Soft Top 2 materials, and invited local riders to schedule demos and summer trial rides.

The Series 6 display focused on tangible upgrades that matter on the water. RACE and ULTRA L3 expand Flite’s model spread for higher-speed and freeride-oriented setups, while the revised wings and new Soft Top 2 materials aim to improve durability and handling for regular shore launches and lessons. Glyde Watersports emphasized that the changes are available across its floor stock, and the dealer brought multiple configurations so riders could compare foil geometries and feel differences in stance and trim.

Glyde Watersports is the Midwest Flite dealer and carries the full Flite/FLITELab lineup. The dealer also highlighted regional demo and service support, positioning itself as a local touchpoint for test rides, tuning, and post-sale maintenance. That regional support matters for riders planning summer trial rides or long weekend trips, since access to demo fleet and service can save time and help riders dial in foil setups before the season.

At the Minneapolis Boat Show the dealer accepted demo requests and began booking summer trial rides, laying out a practical path from first test ride to summer use. Riders interested in follow-up demos, seasonal trials, or service appointments can find details and scheduling through Glyde Watersports’ Series 6 Midwest page: glydewatersports.com/pages/flite-series-6-midwest. The page lists the Series 6 highlights and confirms Glyde’s ability to support Flite and FLITELab products across the region.

For Midwest foil surfers and wing foilers, the Series 6 demo run offers a quick way to evaluate whether the RACE or ULTRA L3 options change your preferred setup, and to test Soft Top 2 surfaces for shore-based launches and lessons. With Glyde Watersports handling demos and service, riders can get gear trials now and plan for summer rides with local backup and maintenance in place. Expect the dealer to roll out additional demo dates and summer trial schedules as water temperatures rise and the season approaches.
