DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Tailored Performance by Size
The Edge VT 2026 carries the range's DNA forward by adapting its construction to each size. It uses robust Dacron on smaller kites for stiffness in high winds, 125g hybrid Dacron on mid-range sizes for precise bar feedback, and full hybrid Dacron on the largest sizes to cut weight and maximize lightwind performance. The result is a kite that's perfectly tuned for its intended conditions.
Big Air-Oriented Performance
Thanks to its new shape and 5 rigid struts, the Edge VT delivers explosive lift and massive hangtime. You can feel the kite turn every gust into raw power, helping you send bigger, more committed jumps while always feeling in control.
Control and Upwind Performance
Precise steering is at the core of the Edge VT 2026's design. On the water, its upwind performance is remarkable, so you spend less time working your way back and more time riding. You'll appreciate its stability, even when the wind gets gusty.
Accessibility and Progression
Ozone designed the Edge VT to be more accessible without taming its explosive character. We recommend this kite for intermediate riders who want to progress in big air and freeride, as its predictable handling makes it easier to learn powerful jumps and high-speed runs.
