Ozone have released their new Kite Control Bar and it looks swish...
Check it out at.... ozonekites.com/water
Ozone are getting right into racing eh?
Race bar, race bridle set, race line set.
Wouldn't it be nice to be sponsored and have 3 new edges with all of the above? ![]()
They don't show what happens to the end of the trim line, does it just flap around or is it fixed?
What is the purpose of the 2 to 1 trim system? Does anyone know if the North Team riders have a similar custom setup?
I think it's harder to set it up nice then it is to use it..
You just have to be good at rising one handed :)
Everything as what Damo wrote above..
I have just changed my bars over to the new Ozone racebar & is very nice setup. Much smoother than I expected and just right amount of depower available. Also the length is spot on - doesn't get wrapped around things.
Archie is this an upgrade kit or are they complete new bars? I agree they look sweet. I'd think that there shouldn't be any increase in depower it's just longer to allow for the extra cascade. It would change the whole dynamic of the kite to add or take away depower. Is the extra length in the centre lines just accounted by an added strop on the outter lines hence they whole line length would be say 40cm longer?
It is a kit with Bar, trim set up, safety and lower section to attach to steering lines. It doesn't come with lines. You move your lines across from your current bar. The lengths are all correct so you can just move current ozone lines across.
Actually have slightly more depower than standard setups - and this comes in very useful when over powered on beam or broad reach when you are wanting to not hit something!
Yes - Mauritius!
. Raceboard with me and it travelled well. Can use it here, but need to wait for higher side of tide.
Some pics of what you get when you buy the new ozone race bar. Used for about 9 sessions - including periods both under and over powered and happy with the setup.
