Ozone C4 9m 2012

Dec 21, 2011 in kitesurfing, watersport

after 2 weeks of teaching for TEAMwaterworld on the Kitemania Tour in hamata/egypt I’m happy to show you the new OZONE C4 9m in a few action shots.  between the teaching hours I had a bit time to fly my new toy and now it’s time to say a few words about it.

you can find more pics in this gallery.

the 2011 C4 was almost the perfect C-kite for my feelings, so it must have been a tough job for the R&D team to push the kite to the next level .

In my opinion they gave the 2012 C4 a bit more lift & hangtime and it feels that the kite pulls a bit more leeward in kiteloops, I guess the turning radius is a bit bigger and that generates the feeling of more power. the relaunch is still very easy und the bar pressure low which I really like, of course you have still the 3 options on the kite to play with the bar pressure .  the kite is very stable in the air and got enough depower to handle big gusts.

the C4 is a very powerful but easy to handle kite, you feel from the first minute comfortable with it. the quality is good as always and 2012 the deliver the kite in a real backpack.

so if you are looking for a 4-line c-kite, look for the next dealer and ask for some demo kites to check it by yourself on the water.

have fun and take care, merry x-mas & a happy new year.

king of the coast 2011.

Apr 26, 2011 in kitesurfing, watersport


last saturday I went to the KING of the COAST event at the nice beach of brasilien which is close to kiel. the KOTC is a season opening test event. Ozone offered to test the C4CatalystZephyr and UNO kite. in the morning we had some nice wind around 18knots blue sky and lots of sun. so it was perfect for testing,

aorund 2 pm the wind decided to drop down and so we started to chill on the beach at the Ozone tent. it was nice to see lots of people and friends from the kite scene again and start the 2011 season.
