Description
True to its name, the Ozone Edge V11 has long proven itself to be at the forefront of the inflatable kite performance sector.
Ozone Edge V11 Highlights
Altitude – The Ozone Edge V11 is a user-friendly powerhouse that anyone can handle. If you want to ride fast, send it for massive air or kite loops for insane hang time to reach altitudes reserved only for the gods, the Edge is for you.
Super
Maximised Satisfaction – Driving fast through turns makes it easy to send it big and maximise satisfaction from your free ride sessions. Smooth bar feeling as the kite transitions through angle of attack range, helps to perfectly time your jumps.
All New Rip-Stop Material Combination – Now in its 11th version, the Edge takes the legendary Ozone feeling to the next level with our new rip-stop material combination. The new rip-stop canopy material has an advanced ultra flex coating improving feedback in gustier conditions making for a smoother ride.
Super Tough Dacron – The new technical rip-stop dacron is super tough, used on the Leading Edge and Struts it improves strength, durability and longevity.
All New Fast Flow One Pump – Makes set up and packing quick and easy. The Ozone Edge V11 features single point inflation/deflation and a high air flow rate between the Struts and Leading Edge, with clips to seal the hoses to prevent unwanted air flow in case of damage.
Performance Features
- Exceptional Ozone Factory Construction – World-class construction in our own factory, using the highest quality materials and hand checked Quality Control at every step. The Ozone factory also manufactures our Paragliding and Speed Wing range; the same Quality Control processes are used across all products.
- Designed with OZCAD – The FUTURE is NOW! All Ozone kites are designed and developed using our own highly advanced custom built CAD software. Our designers work with features specifically tailored to the unique forms and structures of technical Inflatable and foil kites. Part of our design team is dedicated to the upgrade of the CAD code and addition of new modules and features to the program as the development of our kites continues.
- All New Ripstop Material Combination – New rip-stop canopy material with advanced ultra flex coating. Improves feedback in gustier conditions making for a smoother ride. The new technical rip-stop dacron is super tough, used on the Leading Edge and Struts it improves strength, durability and longevity.
- 4-line Pulleyless System – NO pulleys, NO problems. We design all our inflatable kites without pulleys, to inherit the unique Ozone feeling and performance across our range.
DESIGN FEATURES
- Internal Reinforcements – What’s on the inside counts too! Improved strength and durability with a Double layered Dacron + Insignia taped Leading Edge closing seam with high strength threads.
- Double Stitched Folded Seams – Sail canopy seams stitched, folded, and then stitched again for clean and strong connection of the panels.
- Load Distribution Panels – Used on all loaded areas, the Dacron reinforcements enhance load distribution. This means all loads are spread evenly into the sail ensuring the kite flies and performs at its best.
- Direct Connect Struts – Our Direct Connect construction method improves load distribution between the Leading Edge, Struts and Canopy. Connected directly to the Leading Edge, the struts feature internal reinforcements and external webbing. Ensuring clean profiles, this unique construction method maintains optimum canopy tension.
- Reinforced Leading Edge and Struts – The Leading Edge and Struts are reinforced in high stress areas to ensure the kite canopy remains in shape and performs at its best.
- Reinforced Trailing Edge – Double layer Teijin D2 Trailing Edge strip with an internal light weight Dyneema reinforcement. Reduces canopy wear and helps to maintain optimum Trailing Edge tension as designed. The Dyneema line also reduces any potential stretch at the Trailing Edge.
MORE DESIGN FEATURES
- Low Profile Aerodynamic Scuff Pads – Leading Edge bumpers are often large and unnecessary cosmetic items. At Ozone we build our kites for performance and durability using the best materials & components available. Lightweight durable material in all areas requiring scuff protection. Superior abrasion resistance, while keeping a low profile in order to reduce drag and maintain performance.
- Unique Bladder Construction – Constructed in-house, our bladders come with advanced custom built welding machines. Double layered sections are applied to any potential wear areas.
- Anti-Snag Line Deflectors – The Anti-Snag line deflectors prevent bridles and lines from tangling around the wing tip. Safety is increased when launching with a partner and water re-launch is made easier.
- Tuned Bridle Geometry – We work extensively during our R&D process to develop the size range to feel in tune with each other. Every kite has a unique bridle layout, individually tested and fine-tuned to maximize the feeling and performance.
- Fast Flow One Pump Inflation System – Makes set up and packing quick and easy. Featuring single point inflation/deflation and high air flow rate between the Struts and Leading Edge. Comes with clips to seal the hoses to prevent unwanted air flow in case of damage.
TECHNOLOGY
- High Volume Inflate/Deflate Valve – Makes inflation and deflation quick and easy. Pumping is a breeze thanks to the high airflow rate, while the internal seal engages to stop any air coming out under pressure. Unscrew the bottom of the valve to deflate and pack your kite with ease.
- Anti-Flap Soft Battens – Strategically positioned along the Trailing Edge. Providing canopy support and reduced flutter. Enhancing kite feedback to the rider and also reducing canopy material wear.
- Back line Trimming Options – Customise your handling and bar pressure with the back line bridle attachments. Closer to the Leading Edge for slower turn speed and more bar pressure, or closer to the Trailing Edge for faster turn speed and less bar pressure.
- Fool Proof Line Connectors – Colour coded and numbered line connectors prevent incorrect rigging of the flying lines to the kite.
