Ozone Enduro V4 Kitesurfing Kite

Finally the highly anticipated Ozone Enduro V4 is here! After the Enduro's unmistakable  success as being one of the most diverse kites available on the market today, the V4 is now offers even better performance and stability in the big three kitesurfing disciplines; freeride, freestyle and wave riding. This years kite see's a new continuous curved leading edge and with it a complete new redesign to freshen the kite up with new design and manufacturing from other kite development. 

Ozone Enduro V4 - Do It All – Any Style, Any Conditions

• The ultimate do-it-all inflatable kite – any style, any conditions
• Freeride, Wave/Foil, and Freestyle settings
• Versatile Curved Open-C shape
• Performance kite for intermediate to advanced riders

A more progressive power delivery and newly added tapered tips reducing any tip bounce, the Enduro V4 s now a perfected super smooth ride for any style of riding.

Featuring an open-c shape, semi swept leading edge and square wing tip design providing a large depower range, progressive handling, boost for jumping and drift in the waves!  and adjustable 3 stage variable bridling.

With adjustable 3 stage variable bridling geometry the Enduro V4 prides itself on being a kite for anyone of any kitesurfing discipline:

With an outstanding wind range the Enduro works brilliantly in lighter conditions as a fast kite you can work and mid aspect kite as well as an absolutely insane boosting kite for the higher end conditions when things start to get crazy. 

For anyone who cant quite make their mind up as to which style of kite they are looking for, why settle for just one? Why not all three and give yourself that diversity to choose from on the day? The Ozone Enduro V4 offers the ability to progress across the three main disciplines in the sport with a performance and reputation like no other.

So what sizes do I want in a quiver of Enduros?  The most popular quiver sizes are a 9m and 12m with the added 7m for high wind use. For heavier riders an 8m/10m/12m quiver would also be good. We know the 10m is super sweet, so for lighter riders this will be a killer all round one kite with a bigger kite for light wind. The 8m up to the 12m all run on the 50cm bar which instantly gives you a cheaper quiver, being able to purchase multiple kites but just one bar.

Continuous Curve

Utilising our new Continuous Curve Leading Edge construction, each segment is now curved to form a perfect smooth arc from tip to tip as opposed to straight segments with angled joints.

Transverse Sail Shaping

Transverse Sail Shaping has been incorporated to perfectly match the new Continuous Curve Leading Edge – the additional panels attaching to the leading edge optimise canopy tension in this critical area of the profile section.

Increased Performance

These latest design features reduce parasitic drag and create a cleaner surface at the most important area of the airfoil. The result is less turbulent airflow, which positively affects the lift to drag ratio. New thinner bridle line diameters reduce drag even further to increase overall performance.

Variable Bridle Geometry

Quick and easy to change with no extra lines to add or remove. Our market leading three stage Variable Bridle Geometry offers outstanding performance across a wide range of disciplines for intermediate to advanced riders whether you’re free riding, free styling, wave riding or hydro foiling.

• Freeride: The ideal balance in performance and feeling for all-round riding in any conditions. The Freeride setting is the middle knot on the VBG Pigtails (factory setting).
• Freestyle: Increases sheeting bar pressure, increases power in kite loops and increases pop for unhooked tricks. If you prefer a heavier and direct feel this could be the setting for you. The Freestyle setting is the lower knot on the VBG Pigtails.
• Wave/Foil: Decreases bar pressure and increases steering reactivity in all states of power and de-power. It is easier to turn the kite while de-powered when riding a wave or hydro foiling. The Wave/Foil setting is the upper knot on the VBG Pigtails.

Backline Adjustment

The Enduro features multiple back line adjustments to customize steering pressure and turn speed. Combined with our Variable Bridle Geometry, this offers the ultimate in customization of feeling and performance of your kite.

Fast Flow One Pump

The Fast Flow One-Pump Inflation System makes set up and packing quick and easy. It features single point inflation/deflation and a high air flow rate between the Struts and Leading Edge, with clips to seal the hoses to prevent unwanted air flow in case of damage.

Construction Features

• Exceptional Ozone factory construction – World-class construction in our own factory, using the highest quality materials and hand checked Quality Control at every step. The Ozone factory also manufactures our Paragliding and Speed Wing range; the same Quality Control processes are used across all products.
• Designed with OZ-CAD – The FUTURE is NOW – All Ozone kites and wings are designed and developed using our own highly advanced custom built CAD software. Our designers are able to work with features specifically tailored to the unique forms and structures of technical inflatable and foil kites and wings. Part of our design team is dedicated to the upgrade of the CAD code and addition of new modules and features to the program as the development of our products continues.
• 4-line Pulley-less System – NO pulleys, NO problems. We design all our inflatable kites without pulleys, to inherit the unique Ozone feeling and performance across our range.
• Continuous Curve Leading Edge and Transverse Sail Shaping – Each Leading Edge segment is curved to form a perfect smooth arc from tip to tip as opposed to straight segments with angled joints. Transverse Sail Shaping perfectly matches the Continuous Curve Leading Edge. These latest design features reduce parasitic drag and create a cleaner surface at the most important area of the airfoil. The result is less turbulent airflow, which positively affects the lift to drag ratio increasing overall performance.
• Internal reinforcements – What’s on the inside counts too – internal reinforcements for improved strength and durability; such as a Double layered Dacron + Insignia taped Leading Edge closing seam with high strength threads.
• Overlap Flat Seams – Overlap flat seam construction improves sail control resulting in an overall cleaner canopy.
• Load Distribution Panels – Dacron reinforcements are used on all loaded areas for enhanced load distribution. This means all loads are spread evenly into the sail ensuring the kite flies and performs at its best.
• Direct Connect Struts – Our Direct Connect construction method improves load distribution between the Leading Edge, Struts and Canopy. The Struts are connected directly to the Leading Edge with internal reinforcements and external webbing. This unique construction method ensures clean profiles are maintained with the optimum canopy tension
• Reinforced Leading Edge and Struts – The Leading Edge and Struts are reinforced in high stress areas to ensure the kite canopy remains in shape and performs at its best.
• Reinforced Trailing Edge – Double layer Trailing Edge strip with an internal light weight Dyneema reinforcement this reduces canopy wear and helps to maintain optimum Trailing Edge tension as designed. The Dyneema line also reduces any potential stretch at the Trailing Edge.
• Low profile aerodynamic Scuff Pads – Leading Edge bumpers are often large and unnecessary cosmetic items. At Ozone we build our kites and wings for performance and durability using the best materials & components available. Any areas requiring scuff protection we use a lightweight durable material with superior abrasion resistance, while keeping a low profile in order to reduce drag and maintain performance.
• Unique bladder construction – Our bladders are constructed in-house with advanced custom built welding machines. Double layered sections are applied to any potential wear areas.
• Anti-Snag Line Deflectors – The Anti-Snag line deflectors prevent bridles and lines from tangling around the wing tip. Safety is increased when launching with a partner and water re-launch is made easier.
• 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.
• Fast Flow One-Pump Inflation System – The Fast Flow One-Pump Inflation System makes set up and packing quick and easy. It features single point inflation/deflation and a high air flow rate between the Struts and Leading Edge, with clips to seal the hoses to prevent unwanted air flow in case of damage.
• Back-line trimming options – Customise your handling and bar pressure with the back line bridle attachments. Closer to the Leading Edge for slower turn speed and more bar pressure, or closer to the Trailing Edge for faster turn speed and less bar pressure.
• Anti-Flap Soft Battens – Soft Battens strategically positioned along the Trailing Edge provide canopy support and reduce flutter, enhancing kite feedback to the rider and also reducing canopy material wear.
• Fool proof line connectors – Fool proof line connectors prevent incorrect rigging of the flying lines to the kite.
• Water Kite Technical Bag – A technical bag with loads of space including an internal stash pocket, external control system pocket, board straps, pump holder, adjustable shoulder straps and foam back panel for comfort.
