Any pics please?kitepower wrote:A completely new Ozone kitesurfing bar, with a fully spinning, single front line flagging system, and top hat push away safety release is just weeks away from release.
Ozone kites will work with any single centre line flagging 4 line bar.

Re: Ozone bar question
I've tried it several times, under load and with virtually no load, the current release requires low effort to operate, the load did not make much difference.flipper231 wrote:Have you tried it? I pull the trigger often since we have many spots where we have to drop the kite and roll the lines in the water... You have to pull darn hard to get anything done. One of the best but a still a few things to iron outJdizzle wrote:Dude!!!! Ozone make the best bars without a doubt! The benefit of a pull down release is that IT WILL RELEASE EASILY WHEN YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT!!!SpaceRacer wrote:Looking at Ozone kites. Much prefer a mushroom top hat push away quick release. Will any other 4 line bars work with this kite?
Thanks
The bar is safe and we use it in our school. The only issue is that it is not as push away system which is evolving as the industry standard.
The new bar is a push away and is fully spinning, single front line flagging.

Re: Ozone bar question
So has Ozone come out with this new bar yet? I can't find it online anywhere.

Re: Ozone bar question
Can't post the pics without "the man" coming down on me. But the last I heard the bar was delayed as a subcontractor hadn't made some part up to snuff.
