Looks pretty low aspect, even less than V2, or just the photo?

Could it be, the shop uses your photo, in front of the official release and puts its own logo on it, or not? :roll:

If that’s not just a picture of a Hyperlink I’ll eat my hat.

You may keep your hat :D .
Also think it is just a hyperlink on the photo, here is a link with more info in pictures:

https://www.ozonekites.de/produkte/foilkites/chrono-v3/

Anyway, pricing above Sonic2 while having less rips, no mini rips, no spliced but sewed bridle... will see how it performance, if it is again as good as the Chrono V1 at its time, it could be justified, but the sonic2 will still be hard to beat.

It is called lens distortion. The kite is pretty much the same AR as the V2.

That photo is from the official Ozone media folder, so I assume they are allowed to do that.

Until you see the kite in real life and fly it, you should maybe hold back with your comments. The ChronoV3 does not have to beat the Sonic2. It is not trying to be an out of date race kite.

In regards to comparing it to the V2, it is a major improvement in performance and hangtime and the kite has become way more stable. I would go as far as saying it is the most stable Foil kite on the market. But don't take my word for it, try it yourself.

Difficult to imagine a more stable foil kite than the Chrono V2...and if I get more hang time I may need to bring a book with me...

Price is insane. I got 3 new North Monos, 7-9-12, and a used Reo 5m, for the same price as one 13m Chrono V3.
