You don't need "a bunch of bars" to fly 4 line low V equal line length kites. For example, I've successfully flown Cabrinha Contra, Slingshot Rally, and Ozone Enduro (V2) all on the same bars (Slingshot Compstick Sentinel, and Airush Smartbar converted to use cleated trim pulley).Havre wrote: ↑Fri Jul 13, 2018 8:46 amIf you are not sure and you can get a good deal on Pure that sounds perfect to me.
I have never ridden any of them so can't comment on it specifically. What you most often find asking these kind of questions is that people tend to fall in love with a certain brand - and will therefore recommend that brand to others. Very few, if any, will have experience from all those five kites and would be able to give you any personal feedback other than knowing the general characteristics of the different kites.
I love my Ozones, but I honestly can't say that they are better than comparable kites from basically any other brand (funnily enough the only kite I haven't liked was a Core some years ago - but I would never argue Core makes bad kites based on that one experience). Actually the only reason why I only have Ozone is due to the bar. I can't be bothered dragging a bunch of bars around so having one brand makes that part easier (and cheaper).
Sure. It is a simplification (maybe also a bit of laziness from my part). And yes - I could very well end up replacing one of them with a different brand if necessary at one point. The point in this context was rather that I'm not married to Ozone because I think Ozone is that much better than everything else (even if I like my Ozones a lot).iriejohn wrote: ↑Fri Jul 13, 2018 11:33 amYou don't need "a bunch of bars" to fly 4 line low V equal line length kites.
