gathering experience recent Ozone Edge VS recent Peter Lynn Escape

Hey all!

would appreciate very much to know how they compare, considering they should have both great feel and feedback being without pulleys, than many review speak very well of both

ok the Edge is far well known, in any case also Peter Lynn have a big heritage and long history in building kites...

In the same vein as the Ozone Edge, take a look at the Liquid Force P1 and the CrazyFly Hyper. Both are also 5 strut, no batten, no pulley kites.


I guess I am not helping, but figured I would mention those two in case you were unfamiliar with them

While there is unfortunately no review of the Escape, this magazine did review the PL Hook, CF Hyper, and LF P1:

Also in there are the other heavy hitter high-aspect kites: Rebel and XR-5. Also Flysurfer Boost 3. Shame no Ozone Edge.

Two different kind of kites, not really comparable.

Ozone Edge: Big Air/freeride, 5 struts, slow kite which is nice for big air and old school tricks, unhooks poorly.
PL Escape: Freestyle, 4 struts, fast turning kite for kiteloops, unhooks well.
