  • Industry leading internal Re-Ride release system

 

DESIGN HIGHLIGHTS & WHATS NEW?

The Explore V3 has the same cell count, planform and aspect-ratio as the V2, yet through careful refinements, the design team have managed to:

1. Further reduce drag

2. Deliver increased control

3. Improve overall stability

DESIGN HIGHLIGHTS & WHATS NEW?

 

• Improved upwind performance: The addition of full-length battens helps reduce drag, making the kite perform better when flying upwind in stronger conditions.

• Enhanced stability and smoother power control: Adjustments to the bridle layout, including fewer tabs and lines, along with repositioning of key tabs, provide extra stability, smoother power modulation and improved bar feel.

• Better canopy tension and control: A more accurate arc and optimised bridle layout result in improved canopy tension, leading to better overall control and efficiency.

• Cleaner trailing edge: ‘Shrink’ brake tabs reduce drag and create a smoother, cleaner trailing edge, improving overall aerodynamics.

FEEL PURE FREEDOM

As a dedicated backcountry tourer himself, Ozone designer, Stu Yarrow, focused on further optimising the Explore’s accessible handling and practical ease to ensure sessions on the snow are hassle free.

Based in the snowkite wonderland of Norway, testing opportunities are endless.

The Explore V3’s inherent safety, tiny pack size and lightweight versatility really shine, but this is also a very capable kite and can easily get you up and back down steep hills with ease.

Downwinders are really fun here. We take the train upwind and then ride back over the hills, knowing we can cope with any situation. There’s nothing better.

GO SOLO OR WITH FRIENDS WITH CONFIDENCE

The amount of depower that a single surface kite offers, and the speed that it’s applied, is unparalleled, especially in the Explore V3, which is tuned for the ultimate in self-reliance.

The balance in design was to deliver as much flying performance as possible while ensuring the near-instant depower feels as clean and smooth as possible.

The Explore V3’s optimised bridle layout and tab positions, as well as the new, longer plastic ribs, help the kite maintain a more forward and efficient flying position.

The unrivalled depower and huge sense of security will encourage you to go deeper into the backcountry. Adding to your confidence is the Explore V3’s crash-resistant build, super easy self landing / launching ability and the incredibly small size it packs down to.

WHAT YOU FEEL 

The single surface Explore V3 makes snowkiting a real possibility for everyone.

Thanks to the lightweight materials and design, even in extremely light winds the kite feels incredibly stable overhead. The kite remains solid and won’t collapse, regardless of the force of the gusts, and no matter where the kite is in the window, as soon as you push the bar away, the power dies.

The Explore V3 is the kite I choose to teach my clients with and I’m 100% confident in it.

ADVENTUROUS

The Explore V3 is powerful in any size. Take advantage of the ultra smooth and constant pull and then depower the kite instantly, wherever it is in the window.

Self-landing is at its easiest with the Explore V3, while its compact and lightweight characteristics, along with its crash-resistant build will encourage you to venture further without fear of complication.

CAPABLE

Although massively accessible, the Explore V3 is capable of delivering huge riding potential to advanced riders who want to push their boundaries. The versatile handling can be used to steer the kite through tight and dynamic loops, or slower, wider arcs; both essential for navigating difficult terrain.

Introduced on the Explore V2, the closed cells in the tips reduce tip flutter when looping the kite, resulting in less noise and a smoother feeling. Riding down slopes with the kite de-powered up high in the window, or to the side, allows you to focus more on riding and less on the kite.

REVOLUTIONARY INTERNAL RE-RIDE RELEASE SYSTEM

Our unique Internal Re-Ride Release System is the market leading Snowkite release and landing system and features on both our snowkite-specific bars: the Contact Snow V5 and Snow EXP V5.

It has made mountain climbing and packing so much more enjoyable, safe, easy and quick for the user. When activated the kite de-powers instantly without tangling and will sit on the ground ready to re-launch whenever you are. If you need to, you can also completely release the kite.

REVOLUTIONARY INTERNAL RE-RIDE RELEASE SYSTEM Our unique Internal Re-Ride Release System is the mark

DON’T FORGET TO STOP FOR A SNACK AND ADMIRE THE VIEWS

Another advantage of the Ozone Internal Re-Ride Release System is the land and secure option. To land the kite simply pull the 5th line until you reach the Secure Loop which can be found approximately two metres up from the control bar.

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 be hooked onto the kite leash clip, or slipped over the bar end. This makes landing and packing your kite safe and easy even in high winds.

The Brake Handle that spans between the back leader lines on the control system makes reverse launch and light wind landing easy.

SUMMARY: WHY CHOOSE A SINGLE SURFACE DESIGN? 

Here are some general differences when comparing single surface designs to ram-air foils and tube kites:

  • Single surface kites depower instantly for a very safe and easy feel.
  • They’re much lighter weight, which also means they can fly better in lighter winds. You can really work the low end of the Explore V3 very efficiently without worrying as much about keeping the kite in the sky.
  • The single surface design uses less cloth, so is not only lighter in weight, but also packs down to an ultra compact size, making it easy to pack multiple kites into your backpack, or to take a kite along on a ski mission ‘just in case’.
  • The Explore V3 is super easy to self-launch and land. Unlike other single surface kites it rarely gets tangled when landed with the 5th line re-ride system. It is easy to relaunch, even in strong conditions.
  • The Explore V3 build is very resistant to crashes. As a single surface design there is no internal pressure build up between the surfaces that could potentially cause the seams to explode if you tomahawk it hard into the ground.

The future is now. All Ozone kite and wings are designed with our own highly advanced custom built CAD software that we control and modify with each new product design. Allowing for specifically tailored technical developments, our designers can maximise performance while also minimising waste. 
Internal Re-Ride Release System

Internal Re-Ride Release System

Our unique Internal Re-Ride Release System is the market leading Snowkite release and landing system. It has made mountain climbing and packing so much more enjoyable, safe, easy and quick for the user. When activated the kite de-powers instantly without tangling, and will sit on the ground ready to re-launch when you’re ready again.
Single-Layer Laser Cut

Single-Layer Laser Cut

Ozone kites and wings are crafted with exceptional precision using advanced laser technology to cut each panel individually in a single layer. This meticulous approach ensures consistent accuracy across all products, from entry level to high performance models. Our commitment to high standards in production reflects our dedication to delivering reliable, high-quality equipment for riders at every level.
High Performance Ultra Light Materials R1V5

High Performance Ultra Light Materials R1V5

High quality Ultra Light materials have been used extensively on our Kites and Paragliders since 2011. Using Ultra Light materials translates to true performance increases - the kite inflates quicker, flies faster and is more reactive even in the lightest breeze.
Single Surface Design

Single Surface Design

The single surface concept generates ample lift with low airspeed, resulting in easy and forgiving handling, while still providing the power to climb steep slopes. Additionally this offers unique low end flying characteristics with instant and efficient de-power within the bar throw. With only one skin, weight and pack volume is also reduced, ideal for backcountry exploration. The open nature of the design means there is no air held inside the kite, which makes it extra resistant to crash damage.
Lightweight Double Pulley Speed System

Lightweight Double Pulley Speed System

Lightweight, low friction pulleys reduce wear while improving bar feel and providing smooth progressive depower.
L.E Profile Reinforcements

L.E Profile Reinforcements

The Leading Edge is reinforced with flexible lightweight plastic battens to maintain the shape of the profile during angle of attack changes and turbulent airflow. This drastically improves overall performance as the foil remains true to the designed shape.
Dirt-out wing tips

Dirt-out wing tips

The Velcro sealed cells at the tips can be opened for cleaning the kite. Always clean your kite by emptying any snow or debris as this will prolong the life of the kite and help it fly as designed.
Sheathed Dyneema Bridle Lines

Sheathed Dyneema Bridle Lines

High quality, low stretch sheathed bridle lines for maximum strength and performance. This is the same line we have used on our Snowkite range for over 10 years

Spanwise Bridge Lines

Spanwise Bridge Lines

Lines running across the underside of the kite take the place of internal straps and diagonals on double surface kites, distributing load from the bridles evenly and effectively. This avoids excessive span-wise tension being transmitted into the canopy and allows its profile and billow to be controlled more precisely.
Tuned Bridle Geometry

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.
Fool proof line connectors

Fool proof line connectors

Fool proof line connectors prevent incorrect rigging of the flying lines to the kite.

Anything is Possible…

Get your own branded kite – the ultimate advertising billboard

Millions of people go to the beach every year and kitesurfing is the most visually spectacular beach sport around, drawing the eyes of attention from everyone. Kites are huge and kites with a customized design can be amazing advertising spaces.

Flying up and down the beach, park or snow all day long, these spaces can be used to advertise local and international businesses, kite-schools or simply for your own kite with a design that suits you perfectly and makes you stand out a little more from the crowd. If you have your own company you can add your company logo to your kites which allows them to be written off as a business operating expense. How cool is that!

For mainstream companies the opportunity to invest in a flying Billboard is obvious at a fraction of the cost to normal advertising. So far we have worked with many of the World’s leading brands making them kites or making kites for riders sponsored by mainstream brands that see the benefit in Kite sports.

Quotes vary depending on the complexity and size of the logo or design. We can only give a quote once we have the info (see above)

LOGO STUCK:

For logos to be stuck onto only 1-2 kites, we print the logo onto the white rip-stop sticky-back material. Then the logo is cut out and then stuck on the kite. The stickers typically stick very well however we cannot guarantee them for the life of the kite.

CUT INTO SAIL:

If the logo is not too complicated we can cut into the sail as its single surface (or both surfaces of foil kites). The logos look amazing and the light shines through beautifully. Price depends on the size and how complicated the logo is. Please note that we can only use our standard colour fabrics. Ask your local distributor for feasibility.

DESIGN INSPIRATION 

What’s the first thing you do when you get in a car? You click in your seatbelt, hearing that ‘click’ sound makes you feel secure that you are safely buckled up, and you know instinctively how to release it.  The design of our innovative quick release system, the Click-In Loop, was inspired by the same principle. In the same way fastening your seatbelt has become a natural action when getting into a car, riders should activate and reload their release systems before and after every use. Although this important safety check is often overlooked, checking your release before each session will ensure it is functioning properly. We developed the Click-In function to be simple and intuitive, so activating and reloading will become second nature.

IMPORTANT NOTES: 

Below the Bar Release (Recommended Mode)

All riders should attach their Kite Leash to the Flag Out System. This is the small eyelet on the Stainless Steel Swivel Ring.
When the release is activated, the kite will flag out and fall to the water/ground.

ADVANCED RIDERS

(Use at your own risk, not recommended) 

Riders performing unhooked tricks or who are more confident and have spent many hours Kiting can attach in Expert mode, where the loop part runs through the large eye of the steel ring. When letting go of the bar in Expert mode (without activating the release e.g. missed handle pass) the kite will depower but WILL NOT flag out.

Be aware in this situation, the Quick Release will be out of reach and can therefore not be released. When hooked in and activating the Quick Release the steel ring automatically slips off and the kite will flag out.

KEEP IT CLEAN

In all situations make sure that all lines are clear of all working release systems and the kite leash is connected in the right way.

Always clean your control system with fresh water after every session, and reload/release the Click-In Loop to check the system is functioning correctly. Store your control system with the Click-In Loop release open. Reload the next time you set up your kite.
