Description

The Ozone Octane is Ozone’s answer for an easy introduction into performance power kiting, perfectly suited for novice through to seasoned kite flyers. Its smooth flying characteristics and constant pull speeds your kiting progression with no compromise. The Ozone Octane will keep your excitement and adrenaline pumping with its precise and always predictable handling.

 

The Ozone Octane is a kite for anyone who is looking for an entry into traction kiting sports such as buggy or landboarding or for the more experienced flyer who wants a good all round kite with easy flying characteristics, super stable and plenty of performance. It is supremely easy to use with mountains of performance to get you moving in a buggy, on a land board or just getting dragged along in the sand.

 

The Ozone Octane can be purchased as kite only or complete ready to fly, with either handles, 4-Line control bar or Turbo Control Bar. The package includes an Ozone Ground Stake, perfectly suited for securing your kite safely and easily.

 

Available in four sizes; 2, 3, 4 and 5 metres squared, the Ozone Octane covers a massive range enabling action in almost any conditions. All sizes are capable of meeting the demands and capturing the imagination of any kiter.

 

Design Features:

 

Closed Cell Leading Edge:

Closed cell leading edge with mesh for clean air intake and extra strength.

 

Internal diagonal rib structure:
Reduces bridles helping to eliminate line drag distortion and manifests in a true feel for the interaction of kite with wind.

 

Optimized profile:
For power, speed and stability.

 

Auto-stable wing curvature:
Equals rock solid all-conditions performance so pilot concentration remains unbroken.

 

Wing tip dirt-outs:
Linked to internal trailing edge sand-channels prevents any sand or debris from being trapped in the kite.

 

Hand-checked Ozone factory construction:

Utilizing highest grade Oztex 40d ripstop nylon fabric and pre-stretched dyneema control line throughout. This translates to the kite flying in lighter winds and a greater wind speed to power generated ratio and as the kite can penetrate the window deeper the up wind ability is superb. The stability is kept even with less bridling by the use of Diagonal-Rib construction, a method of strengthening the kite from inside to enable less support from the bridles.

Mylar Edged:
Aerodynamics tells us that the leading edge and the trailing edge are the two most critical lines in an aerofoil section. Ozone kites are Mylar taped on the leading edge, giving a more rigid structure, a clean and efficient aerofoil, and absolutely zero stretching. The Mylar tape effectively locks the sail shape, meaning your kite keeps it’s factory trim. For the trailing edge Ozone roll the seam twice and stitch to give a soft and clean exit for the airflow.

 

Double Stitched:
Ozone Octane kites are double-needle stitched, which is stronger and more durable than single line stitching in the event of the kite being dragged over rough ground. Even the thread used for stitching the lines and sail is UV-bonded, further adding to the strength and life-span of our kites. Every seam is checked to within 0.5 mm; a look at the colour-scheme accuracy and the inside of the seams of our kites will highlight this fact.

 

Bridle Lines:

Ozone's aim when designing the bridle lines is to use the least amount of line possible, to minimise parasitic drag through the air, resulting in a more performant kite. Kite design has advanced to the point where the accuracy and diameter of the line lengths is vitally important. To achieve this accuracy, Ozone use the highest quality Dyneema lines which are stitch finished for extra strength and less drag.

 

Attachment Tabs:
The Ozone Octane's attachment tabs are sewn deep into the reinforcement area of the ribs, which means that the load is spread over a larger area of material, thus reducing any stretching and ageing of the cloth.

 

Flying Lines:
Tested to 200/75 kg, Ozone’s heat-treated Eurocord Dyneema SK75 lines ensure stretch resistance, a high thermal tolerance and durability for all kites. Lines are cut, pre-stretched, sleeved and stitched to ensure 100% accuracy. The lines are final load tested to 60% of their breaking strain to “lock” the line and as a final production check. The ‘kook-proof’ colour-coded and labeled line connection system makes set-up safer and completely stress-free for riders new to kiting.

• Ozone Octane 4-Line Power Kite

Who is this kite designed for?

 

The Ozone Octane is the ultimate performance kite for anyone to get into the sport of power kiting - wanting the highest performance available yet not wanting to compromise on stability.

 

The Ozone Octane is the perfect balance between power and control, a kite that is fun and forgiving yet with high end performance. Perfect for recreational, buggying, landboarding, or snowkiting.

 

Be assured this kite will keep the adrenalin pumping long after others have given up and called time: Super smooth power delivery, speedy, agile, precise and always predictable the Octane sets a new bench mark in the satisfaction of “wind addiction”.

Available in 4 sizes from 2.0 meters to 5.0 meters squared the OZONE OCTANE covers a massive range enabling action in almost all conditions.

 

Ozone Octane 2m: The 2m is about as much fun as you can hope to have with a small kite. Massive top end wind range for high-speed balls out buggy runs and just the right amount of challenge for anyone with ambition. Try flying on a bar as the kite boarding trainer of choice. Perfect for young or lightweight riders!

Ozone Octane 3m: The 3m is the ideal entry point in the range for the land locked kiter generating power early on in the wind range while always being easy to control. Quite possibly the perfect introduction to landboarding.

Ozone Octane 4m: The 4m has the bottom end power needed in the lighter winds likely to be encountered by novice snow kiters and is a great mid-range buggy engine or land board motor.

Ozone Octane 5m: The 5m is the one to beat in this category, with light wind performance for effortless traction and an upper limit the pros will just keep pushing.

Reviews

Quality at a very reasonable price - Chris Stevens >>

 

Great all round kite as well as more responsive and moves faster through the wind window.

 

Spot on with the product description wasn't sure on 3m or 4m. 4m suits great for 14.6 stone.

 

A treat to fly in light winds and has a lot of grunt in medium winds.

 

Great product as always from Ozone, quality at a very reasonable price.
