  We construct non-axially symmetric static soliton solutions, with non-zero
topological charges, of an extension of the Skyrme-Faddeev model. The model has
an extra quartic-derivative term and we choose its coupling to the Skyrme-term
to be negative. We solve the full equations of motion to find numerical
solutions with topological charge up to seven and find that the model favours
large ring-like solutions.
