Kite promos and car commercial. Always the same.

Should be a nice kite though. Still got the v1 and that is in my opinion a fantastic kite.
Love the mid-air board switch!
If only that was possible with the V1 :wink:

Quick question on bars if okay?

What bars and v combos do people use with their enduros?

Any issues to be mindful of with non-ozone bar/v setup with various bridle configurations?

I got an Ozone bar, but I can't think of any reason why it wouldn't work with any low V bar.

Ozone typically got longer lines at 25m, but I believe they sell 22m bars as well. Couldn't see that being an issue if you got a bar with shorter than 25m lines.

Connecting it shouldn't be an issue - might need to change some pigtails?

@apollo4000 - I am flying my Enduros with OR Shift bar and Cabrinha Overdrive bar. I like how the kites fly with those bars better than the Ozone's own bar. One reason are the lines - as Havre mentions Ozone usually provides 25m lines, which takes away some of the direct connection feeling you get from a good 22/23m lines. Also in the case of OR Shift - the bar itself is more comfortable and the trim adjustment is way better than any cam cleat I have used.
Matching the connections - exactly as Havre wrote you can just swap the pigtails from steering to power lines and vice versa. Ozone should take a note amd move to the defacto current standard - knots on steering lines, loops on power lines at the kite's end.

Have flown mine on Slingshot Sentinel bars, no issues.

I’ve flown my enduros with various bars. Any low V will work, eg slingshot, Naish, cab. You may need a pigtail set to make the attachments that’s all. I have 2 bars, one with 23m lines the other with 25. I also have 2m extensions that I occasionally use with my zephyr, but that flies so much better (more fun) on 25m lines.

The length I like best is 23m - even on the 14m - unless the wind is marginal. Kiteloops are way better on this length and the kites are generally more fun and faster. Better for surfing too.

I had a 22m set for a while but they didn’t seem to be flying quite right, not quite in the sweet spot and power delivery a bit on/off.

I use 50cm bar on all kites, even the zephyr and 14m enduro feels prefect.

@mar menor - I can't say I notice any difference in bar pressure.

on the freeride setting it's the same. On the freestyle setting it's a tiny bit lighter - on the 3rd knot on the v2 (freestyle setting) it felt a bit too heavy for me. I think the knots are actually a little closer together on the v3 but haven't measured yet. haven't been on the surf setting yet.
