The Ozone Subzero V2 is designed with some of the lightest materials available on the market, offering true performance increases and enhanced flying characteristics across all aspects. It inflates quicker, launches in lighter winds, flies faster, stays in the air longer in gusty conditions and is more reactive even in the lightest breeze.
The planform and profile combination delivers superior stability in flight, even when bashed by gusty winds. The optimized strap positions distribute load evenly throughout the sail, translating to smooth, predictable power delivery and snappy handling. Reduced bar pressure and lighter steering forces will let you ride all day without fatigue and intensify the feeling of a light kite.
The Subzero also allows the adventurous to push the boundaries of the snowy backcountry. It has incredible potential due to its fast direct handling and amazing power generation in light winds, but also big de-power in strong winds.
The Subzero’s enhanced stability makes difficult backcountry rides and mountain climbing more accessible and enjoyable. Combine that with our revolutionary Internal Re-Ride Release System and you have the ultimate backcountry Snowkite.
The Subzero V2 is available as a Kite Only option or Kite Complete with the Contact-Snow Control System and Technical Mountain Backpack.
Internal Re-Ride Release System:
The Internal Re-Ride Release System is the result of two years research and development by Ozone's design team and pro riders, with the aim to create the safest system on the market. The goal was to have a release system that once activated the kite can easily be re-launched without having to untangle or clear any lines. The unique Re-Ride Release System stalls the kite with an internal line – the kite de-powers instantly without tangling and will sit on the ground ready to re-launch when you're ready again.
Another advantage of our Internal Re-Ride Release System is the land and secure option. The Secure Loop can be found in the 5th line approx 2m up from the control bar. To land the kite simply pull the 5th line through the chicken loop until you reach the Secure Loop. The kite will stall and fall to the ground without any pull. Use the Secure Loop in the 5th line to keep the kite on the ground - it can either be hooked onto a carabineer on your harness or over the bar horn. This makes landing and packing your kite safe and easy even in high winds.

Who is this kite designed for:
Ozone Subzero - 7m:
The 7m is ideal for light riders or strong winds. It is fast handling and produces good solid power when you move it. If you can only have one kite and you weigh less than 70kg then this is for you.
Rider weight range from 50kg to 80kg, Wind range 5 to 20knots.
Ozone Subzero - 9m:
This kite is a dream and a perfect all rounder, ideal for riders that want to do a bit of everything. I like the kite because it is perfect for cruising, jumping or mountain climbing.
Rider weight range from 60kg to 90kg, Wind range 5 to 20knots
Ozone Subzero - 11m:
The 11m is a power house and will pull almost anything. If you like to jump and fly then this is what you might be looking for. For a big kite it
handles well and the de-power is excellent.
Rider weight range from 70kg to 100+kg, Wind range from 5 to 20knots.
Ozone Subzero - 13m:
Very light winds or a heavy rider are needed for this kite. If the 11m was not enough for you we built this! This kite has so much grunt and it pulls like hell from the moment you put it in the air.
Rider weight range from 80+kg, Wind range depends on the rider.
Ozone Control-Snow Control Bar System:
The Contact-Snow Control System offers the latest in safety features, a clean control bar design and a simple easy-to-use trimming system.
Push Away Quick Release – The control system features a new pushaway quick release safety with total flag out of the kite. The release handle is ergonomic with positive release forces (under 8kg) allowing for quick and easy release. Simple re-assembly saves time and gets you back up and riding faster.
Three Safety Modes:
The new Contact-Snow Control System offers riders a choice of three safety modes; the recommended Flag Out safety, or the optional Brake Handle or Suicide safety modes.
The recommended Flag Out safety offers 100% flag out in all situations by releasing the safety or letting go of the bar when un-hooked.
The Brake Handle safety method attaches the safety leash to the hand brake line that connects to the back leaders, when the safety is released the kite stalls down to the ground.
The Suicide option offers 100% flag out only when the Megatron is released whilst hooked in, allowing riders practicing handle passes to let go of the bar with out flagging the kites safety (not recommended).
Anti-twist 100% Flag Out Line – The flag out line running through the loop & safety leash attachment at the bottom keeps the leash tangle free when doing rotations and manually unwinding the centre lines using the Spinning Handle.
Low Friction Centre Piece:
The new control bar features a low friction aluminum centre piece designed to reduce trim line wear.
Auto Positioning Chicken Loop :
Designed in conjunction with the bar centre piece, the Megatron spinning handle allows chicken loop auto positioning, offering easy unhooked riding and hooking back in.
Magnetic trim handle system:
The Magnetic trim handle connects to a magnetic neoprene sock covering the clam cleat to reduce tangles when the trimmer is depowered.
PU Covered trim line & Ronstan Orbit Pulley:
The tough PU covered trim significantly reduces wear when sheeting in and out, whilst the smooth running Ronstan Orbit Pulley also prevents trim line wear.
The Contact-Snow Control System bar sizes come in 45cm, 50cm and 55cm. The larger size PU chicken loop (sold separately) is perfect for riders with longer arms or for riders wanting even easier hooking in & out.
