Re: Ozone EXP - Unintended Possibilities

. Is there anything different on the EXP vs Chrono v5, except for the 5fth landing line option and extra inlets without valves? The Exp has some other differences as well. It doesn’t have the adjustment knots for regulating bar pressure like the Chrono. Dimensions are slightly different as well. I ...

Another great episode - as Andrea would say, “You guys are killing it!”

Re: Lords of Tram - GKA Big Air World Cup 2024

It is great to see Jaime take a win!!! He is one of the few pro riders that responds on kite forum to questions. His answers are intelligent and informative. He is a well-rounded rider. He excels on both twin-tip and hydrofoil. He flys LEI and foil kites doing amazing acrobatics on both. He and his ...

Re: Ozone Vortex Ultra-X

Let’s hear some more reviews. Curious how it compares to the Edge. Please tell us about boosting, hang-time, turning, depower, bar pressure, and turning.

Thank you!

Re: Ozone EXP - Unintended Possibilities

. Thanks for the post Fernmanus - how does the EXP compare to Souls and Sonics in upwind performance? (I think I remember you having FSers in past).
Upwind performance is excellent. Similar to Sonic or Chrono. A little better than the Soul.

Re: Kite Seat Harnesses

I started using the Ion Sonar Seat harness this year on the water. It is a popular harness used by foil racers. I can hold down a heavier load compared to my waist harness. So for big air, it gives you an edge. Plus, the next day, i don’t feel any pain in my back. The other advantage of a seat harne...

Ozone EXP - Unintended Possibilities

The Flysurfer Peak was originally designed as a snow kite, but has been embraced as a kite for hydro foiling. I think the Ozone EXP which was also designed as a snow kite may hold promise as a big air kite on the water. The EXP has a design similar to the Chrono 5. The difference is that it is a 5 l...

Re: Kite school litigation in Texas

That was a good one. Just close enough to reality that you think it might be true. Kind of like President Biden celebrating Trangender Awareness Day in lieu of Easter. Oh wait…

Re: North Getting Serious About Foil Race Kites

It makes sense that race kites get sold at a big discount. They are so fragile that most don’t have much of a shelf-life.
