Ozone

Ozone is one of the world's leading companies in the production and development of kitesurfing kites, paragliders, paramotors, speed wings, land kites, snow kites, and even more recently, wingsuits. By developing such a wide range of flying equipment, Ozone has amassed an unparalleled amount of knowledge and possesses the latest technologies related to kites. This expertise is reflected in the kites that Ozone produces. Ozone doesn't create products solely for external consumers and kitesurfers; instead, they prioritize products they themselves, as kitesurfers and extreme sports enthusiasts, find reliable and of the highest quality—equipment they prefer to use every day. The development of Ozone kites springs from an intrinsic passion within the entire Ozone team. Ozone Kiteboarding's mission is to elevate the kitesurfing sport to a higher level with each new kite they release through technical innovation and intensive R&D. At Ozone, the product takes center stage.

The Ozone Kiteboarding research and development team consists of individuals who are more than just designers; they are kitesurfers themselves, who, just like you, relish being on the water with the best kitesurfing gear. This unique blend of experience and design expertise allows Ozone to infuse perfection into Ozone kites. It goes to the extent that Ozone Kiteboarding speaks of the 'Ozone feeling.' The sensation you experience when flying an Ozone kite or riding an Ozone board is beyond description.

Ozone has years of experience in the production, development, and continuous improvement of kites, kiteboards, and related accessories. Naturally, this journey was not without its challenges, and Ozone underwent an extensive process concerning new products and innovations. Before Ozone fully committed to the kitesurfing sport, they decided to first establish themselves in the snow kitesurfing market with high-end foil kites. This endeavor took off rapidly, and Ozone soon realized the necessity for their own factory to produce all Ozone kites with the high quality standards they demand from their products. In 2001, Ozone inaugurated its own factory in Vietnam, where, to this day, all their kites, including paragliders and kitesurf kites, are manufactured. An additional advantage of producing in their own fully controlled factory is that they are not bound by production cycles of 4 to 6 months, allowing Ozone to produce their improved kites only when they are entirely satisfied. Over time, Ozone also began manufacturing kites with an inflatable Leading Edge. Some examples include the Ozone Edge, Catalyst, C4, and Reo, each tailored for specific kitesurfing target audiences.

One of the elements of the Ozone brand they are most proud of is the R&D department. All kites, as well as paragliders and everything Ozone manufactures, are designed by highly experienced riders and instructors. And it hasn't gone without results. Consider Andy Yates, who became the kitesurfing world champion in 2010 using the Ozone C4 and is still involved in the development of kites and boards. Besides winning the freestyle world championship, Ozone is primarily prominent in the racing segment of the kitesurfing sport. This is due to Ozone's ability to develop highly effective and stable kites. Within this racing segment, Ozone is consistently featured in the lineup for the race with various inflatable kites, such as the Ozone Edge, as well as foilkites like the Ozone Chrono and R1. This has certainly proven to be successful, resulting in multiple victories in the racing segment, both in twintip and hydrofoil, using Ozone kites.

The development of kiteboards also doesn't stand still at Ozone. Ozone produces kiteboards of the highest quality and has a kiteboard in its range for every skill level or discipline. For example, the first kiteboard introduced by Ozone was the Ozone Code. An all-around kiteboard suitable for almost every rider level and style. Whether it's freeride, cruising, big air, or unhooked freestyle, the Code is perfect for it. The Ozone Torque is also a beloved kiteboard. The Ozone Torque is the performance freestyle and freeride kiteboard and used to be commonly ridden with boots. Over time, the Ozone Base (beginner's kiteboard), Ozone Infinity (Performance light wind), and Ozone the Plank (school kiteboard) were added to the lineup. Ozone also offers a range of foilboards, such as the Ozone Apex V1, a freeride foilboard.

Ozone is one of the premium brands that has proven to produce kites, kiteboards, and related accessories of the highest quality in recent years. Ozone has built up a broad range with the latest technologies, ensuring a great time on the water.
