Thank You, Yes this bar does have the newest Ozone click CL system that is great. I ride it on a Ride Engine style slider rope but with a new Dakine tiny seat harness.Foil wrote: ↑Mon Sep 30, 2019 4:33 pmwhoever recommended that Ozone race bar may have been trying to sell one,
I did notice a while back that two guys were trying to offload thiers as a swap or buy,
your right in that unless your loading up an overpowered foil kite for speed, racing or your a speed freek, then that bar is overkill.
Ozone do two standard non race style bars, they come in different throw lengths,
for those who want a long throw and then like me who want a shorter throw to rest the bar against every now and then, like when spinning the bar back so the bar just falls into my palm without looking for it, that bar is called the Compact bar or wake style bar, and without lines is a good price, and of course comes with the new click in system,
I noticed the bar in your picture is not the one with the click in system?
the brake strap fits on all the ozone bars and costs very little, making your own is not worth it as the Ozone one has clever little fixing points.
I much prefer the Ozone bar to my north click bars which I sold recently because of my preference for the Ozone compact bar, line lengths are much easier to manage, which you do end up changing when using foil kites on hydrofoil boards, I can now use many combinations of line length
something that never seemed to work when using LEI kites and Ttips.
Overkill.... that's pretty much what I'm feeling about this. Wish I could simply trade for a more compact Ozone that would fill my needs better.
My needs: All free-ride, All hydrofoil, No race, Rarely a huge overpowered since this is an 8m Soul.
