New T-shirt...

Thanks to Steve at Ozone kites, it's replacing my red one that I had managed to trash...

Also a Kite-Power stubbie holder. 

The hunky, model dude is actually me!

The end...

...of Ozone fixed bridal kites, I did love my Method and Flow, but now prefer my Ozone depowers -

"Hello everyone, we have taken a big decision at Ozone to stop manufacturing the fixed bridle foil kites and accessories. The reason for stopping is that we would like to concentrate our time on depower foils and water kites and to keep driving forward innovation in the kite world.

We will of course continue with our warranty on all products and you will still be able to buy Ozone products for the next few months at your local shop.

We will be keeping the Ignition Trainer kite in the range. We will be stopping the Quattro, the Octane, the Method, the Pure and the Quantum and accessories.

Everybody in the team at Ozone would like to thank all of our customers for all the dedication to our fixed bridle foils over the past 12 years.

Cheers
Team Ozone"

Somebody please...

Lend me a couple of kites for long term review? Sponsor me?

I really need a couple of de-powers to cover the full wind range but my wife's not having it!

I'm getting desperate, trying to figure out what I could sell to fund another de-power, even considering my ozone method 4m but that would leave my quiver seriously depleted. 

Somebody help...!

Fashionista - part II

My new Ozone kite t-shirt arrived today, like the kites really nice quality and unlike the kites the material is really thick!

So do you think I have a career as a model?

Fashionista..!

I am renowned for my amazing sense of style and passion for clothes! (Please note the heavy sarcasm)

T-shirts and shorts are my regular and I struggle to wear anything else. Please don't ever ask me to wear smart/casual!

But I have a new addition to my wardrobe - why am I posting this on a buggy blog..?

'Cause it's an ozone t-shirt!

Bought from Stonkerboards on ebay.

Ozone Kites

I have always had a thing about Ozone kites, I think it stems from owning my first power kite back in 2004 - a five metre Ozone Samurai, check out my first review at racekites.

I always regretted selling this kite to buy a de-power  (a flysurfer rookie 2 9m) which I was sure would get me moving on a landboard - another review on racekites. But kite boarding was never going to happen for me and eventually I sold my kites and stuck to mountain-boarding...

Then in 2007 we left the UK and headed to Australia and I sold my beloved MBS mountain board (a couple more reviews! MBS review and MBS long term test).

Eventually my love of kiting resurfaced with the discovery of the ideal location only 10 minutes from home, Lake Walyungup, and I was soon the proud owner of another Ozone kite - a 5m Flow. 

After static flying for a while I new I needed more, I had the space I had the kite now what I needed was a set of wheels! So I bought my Peter Lynn Comp XR+ and with the Flow started buggying. 

Ozone Flow 5m review.

Then I went through a few more kites (kite tart!) before settling on another Ozone a 4m Method...

this was to be my high wind kite and has pushed me to my personal best. And a couple more reviews...

Ozone Method 4m Review and Ozone Method review, part 2

And now I own an Ozone Manta 2 10m - my first taste of de-power...
