Ozone Demo Tour Heads to Brazil – July-August ’25

July 9, 2025 / Kite Wing

After three months on the road across Europe, Ozone’s globe-trotting demo tour is heading to Brazil where we hope to provide many more great sessions with our gear through July and August

In this interview we caught up with the man behind the mission, Santi Cisneros – lifelong Ozone rider, travelling coach and all-round frother – to find out what makes the tour so special and why you might want to join him at one of the stops.

How did you become the ‘Ozone Demo Guy’?
I think it all started when I was really young. I was 14 when I began organising demos and clinics at my home spot. My main goal back then was to entice Tortu Fasce – the owner of Ozone Argentina and my mentor – to come visit so he could teach me. Over time, and with a lot of hard work, it grew into something much bigger.

For me, it’s always been about pushing the sport to its limits and sharing that passion. Ozone isn’t just a brand – it’s my family, my religion. So getting to share that with people all over the world is a dream.

What was the idea behind the Ozone Demo Tour in Europe?
The main idea was to connect with people, share our way of seeing the sport, and let them try out the best gear in the game. Simple as that – create good vibes, build community and ride together.

Did you do it alone?
Not at all! I had the company of a good old friend, Joaco Rodríguez – another Argentinian rider who’s constantly pushing limits. Sharing this journey with someone like him made it even more memorable. We had a million adventures – one better than the next. That kind of experience stays with you forever.

So just two guys, a van full of gear, and total freedom?
Exactly! We hit hundreds of spots. The exact conditions didn’t matter too much, because the back of the van was packed with every kite and wing in the Ozone range. Honestly, it was hard to even choose what to ride some days.

So just two guys, a van full of gear, and freedom to go make people happy?
Exactly! We hit hundreds of spots. The exact conditions didn’t matter too much, because the back of the van was packed with every kite and wing in the Ozone range. Honestly, it was hard to even choose what to ride some days!

Which spots did you visit?
We rode in:

Tarifa, Spain
Fuzeta and Faro, Portugal
Malaga and Barcelona, Spain
Sant Pere Pescador & Empuriabrava
Leucate and Barcarès, France
Some secret French spots (amazing)!
Treompan, Brittany, France, and other spots in the region
De Haan and Blankenberge, Belgium
Noordwijk and Workum, Netherlands
Lake Como & Lake Garda, Italy

I think that’s everything… I hope I haven’t forgotten anyone!

Which was the best demo stop?
That’s a tough one! If I had to pick two:

Sant Pere Pescador felt like home – great wind, amazing people, and we ended the day with a proper Argentinean barbecue. That was special.

And Brittany totally blew me away. One of the most beautiful places I’ve ever kited, with three days of pumping wind and loads of stoked riders trying the gear.

What were the biggest challenges of running the tour?
Coordination. Choosing the next spot meant speaking with loads of different people, often in different languages, while constantly checking weather forecasts. Not the worst problem to have, but it definitely kept us on our toes.

What were your personal highlights?
Honestly? The whole trip. I’m young, and I got the chance to share my passion with the brand I love, all over Europe. It felt like a dream come true.

Which products did people get most excited about?
These days, everyone wants to fly! So the Mach1 and the Vortex Ultra-X were huge hits. On the wing side, people were super curious about the Pocket Rocket – it’s something new and exciting and really stood out.

Which product got the most use?
All of them, honestly. We’ve got such a big range of kites and wings for all styles and disciplines, so everyone found something they loved.

What level of rider should come to a demo?
Anyone! We’ve got gear for every level – from beginners who can stay upwind to full senders throwing double loops. Everyone’s welcome.

How do you keep people safe during demos?
I’ve been kiting since I was nine and teaching since I was 15, so I’ve got a lot of experience spotting ability levels quickly. You can usually tell right away – even just by the way someone picks up a bar!

What conditions do you usually have for a demo?
In Europe, most of the demos were in 15–25 knots. We even had a wild one in Workum with close to 30 knots!

How long can people try the equipment for?
If there’s a queue, usually around 25–30 minutes per person. But if the kite or wing is free, go enjoy a full session!

BRAZIL – JULY & AUGUST 2025

The tour is heading to Brazil next – what’s the plan?
Yes! I’m super excited – Brazil is like my second home. The conditions are perfect: stable wind, flat water, and you can ride every day.
