DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Accessible Freeride Performance for Everyone
The Reflex V1 is Ozone's new performance freeride kite, designed for all riders. It replaces the Enduro in the lineup, offering much more exciting twin-tip performance while keeping enough versatility for wave and foil riding. The Reflex is for anyone who wants the thrill of kitesurfing with minimal hassle and maximum progression, in a tough package built to handle heavy use in varied conditions. From beginner to advanced, its intuitive steering helps you ride with confidence and push your skills.
Based on the Vortex, the Top Performer in the Range
The Reflex is based directly on the renowned Vortex. The idea was to take the shape of that exceptional kite, combine it with a more user-friendly aspect ratio and a triple ripstop Dacron frame, and create a kite that is both high-performance and versatile at an attractive price-under €2,000 for the 12m². The result is a kite that has the Vortex's performance DNA while remaining easy to fly and affordable. It's a new generation of kite, born from one of the highest-performing models on the market.
Total Versatility: Big Air, Wave, and Foil
The Reflex shines in big air and kiteloops, while being adaptable enough for wave and foil sessions. It offers a blend of durability, performance, and a light feel in the air that suits the style and demands of most modern kitesurfers. Jumping is easy and the hangtime is addictive. Its tight turning radius makes kiteloops easy to learn and send without hesitation. Everything feels perfectly balanced, letting you ride fast and effortlessly.
Dacron Construction and 16-Point Bridle
The Reflex is built on an incredibly strong and reliable triple ripstop Dacron airframe, used in key areas requiring stiffness and stability. Its responsive 3-strut layout and 16-point bridle system, taken from the Vortex, ensure stable flight and total control. The light to medium bar pressure enhances its intuitive feel. The entire kite is built in Ozone's own factory using their proprietary OzCAD design software. Each kite is made to order, with the option to choose custom colors.
