Ozone Flow V1 Wing.  This is the best all-around wing from Ozone - first time riders, waves, freeride, to freestyle.

The FLOW gets its name because this wing has been developed to help you find your Flow state! Ideally suited for freerider progression, it’s also a total weapon for dedicated wave riders and those looking to jump and throw freestyle moves.

FLOW STATE
Our aim was to make a wing with a greater sense of control to help riders accelerate their riding progression, from tacking and gybing, to jumping or wave riding, the Flow is designed to smoothly deliver what you need.

When it comes to improving the fluidity and ease of your riding, the extended front carbon handle offers the advantages of a boom, like flying the wing one handed and easy hand placement, yet it packs small and doesn’t need to be removed after your session.

The Flow and Flux wings share DNA, however the Flow has a reduced span and lower aspect ratio than the Flux, offering more low end power and easier handling.

The Flow is a fully featured design and also includes harness line attachments for when you’re ready to ride faster, harder and for longer with less arm fatigue in stronger conditions.

Key Features:

• Do-it-all freeride wing
• Rigid carbon handles
• New longer front handle for one handed control
• Ideal for wave riding with compact span
• Speed and lift for jumping
• New semi-rigid depower/surf handle for excellent control when flagged out
• Lightweight handling
• Strong build quality

PROGRESSION
The Flow has a responsive, lightweight and easy feel. Delivering both progressive power with good low end torque to get you up on foil, it also has range to handle stronger winds and speed without losing control. Highly manoeuvrable and yet incredibly stable overhead, tacks and gybes are made easy when passing the wing from hand to hand, giving you time to relax and complete the manoeuvre.

The extended front handle allows for balanced one handed steering, opening up all sorts of expressive carving manoeuvres in flat water. Instead of riding with a locked-in two-handed position, you can maintain power and control while holding the wing out to the side in one hand, offering a very fluid and free feeling.


ON THE WAVE
If your primary aim is riding waves and swells, whatever the size and quality, the Flow is for you. The span and aspect-ratio are perfectly tuned to help prevent wing tip touchdowns and to provide a beautiful centre of power when riding one handed.

The extended front handle is also particularly good for wave riding where you might quickly want to switch between powered up sailing and drifting. In small wave conditions, or in cross-onshore wind swell, it’s not always worth the big movement to grab the surf handle. The Flow’s longer front handle allows you instead to find a balance point to steer the wing one handed and still benefit from having a little pull from the wing.

The Flow is equipped with a new semi-rigid surf handle that gives you even more control and prevents the wing inverting. In good waves there’s nothing like ripping back and forth with a beautifully balanced wing drifting obediently behind you.


FREESTYLE
The Flow's compact design, tight sail, on-tap power, rigid handles, excellent manoeuvrability and impressive boost capabilities make it a great choice for freestylers. It’s fast for spinning and is excellent if you want to get inverted as the sail behaves well when going from positive to negative loads. No matter if you are just starting to get air or a seasoned freestyler; the Flow ticks all the boxes.


BUILT TO BE RIDDEN
We’ve used the reliable and rugged Teijin dacron on the leading edge and struts to provide excellent resistance to flex and abrasion. The canopy  is made from Teijin’s proven 55g triple ripstop because this is a wing designed for constant action.

As with all our products we were able to save weight but still ensure integrated strength is built in throughout. The Flow is made with great care by the hands of our expert team of sewers in our manufacturing facility. Using our custom OzCAD design software developed in-house, every stitch and square inch of material placement is carefully calculated and results in a super clean finish and well tensioned sail.  

Each part of the Flow’s design has been tailored to create an all-round performance wing with a mid-price range on which any intermediate through to expert wingfoiler can rip on without restraint.

DESIGNED WITH OZ-CAD

The future is now. All Ozone kite and wings are designed with our own highly advanced custom built CAD software that we control and modify with each new product design. Allowing for specifically tailored technical developments, our designers can maximise performance while also minimising waste. 

FACTORY OWNERSHIP ADVANTAGE 

Ozone uniquely owns its own factory where all kites, wings, boards, hydrofoils, paragliders, speed wings and accessories are made. Guaranteeing hand checked quality control and the finest materials at every step, there are also excellent working conditions for all 1000 employees. 

LONG RIGID POWER HANDLES

Ergonomically angled front and back carbon fibre handles with EVA grip provide maximum control and comfort with incredible feel and response. The front handle mount features a soft bumper to protect your head and board during water starts.

EASY VIEW WINDOWS

Easy view windows on either side of the strut provide safety for you and others around.

HORIZONTAL PANELS

Horizontal canopy panels and adjoining seams optimise load distribution through warp and weft of the material, improving feeling and reducing material stretch.

DE-POWER/SURF HANDLE

The De-Power/Surf Handle at the front of the Leading Edge offers increased control when flying the wing single-handed and features a soft knuckle padding for extra comfort.

DIRECT CONNECT STRUT

Our Direct Connect construction method improves load distribution between the Leading Edge, Strut and Canopy. The Strut is connected directly to the Leading Edge with internal and external reinforcements. This unique construction method ensures clean profiles are maintained with the optimum canopy tension.

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.

FAST FLOW AIR VALVES

Fast Flow Air Valves on both the Leading Edge and Strut makes inflation, deflation and packing a breeze.

OVERLAP FLAT SEAMS

Overlap flat seam construction improves sail control resulting in an overall cleaner canopy.

WING HARNESS LINE (OPTIONAL)

Quick and easy to install, our Wing Harness Line is a slim and lightweight design with an internal bungee contracting when unhooked to stay out of the way.

WING WAIST STRAP

The Waist Strap is slim and lightweight with a strong buckle closure and size adjustment buckle. It connects to the Leash Line via a loop-to-loop connection. If you become overpowered or lose control let go of the wing and it will de-power on the Leash Line. Our wings ship standard with a Waist Strap pre-attached to the Leash Line.

WING QUICK RELEASE (OPTIONAL)

The easy to use Quick Release is for riders who prefer extra security to detach from the wing in a fast and easy way. It is compatible with the Wing Waist Leash or a harness. The Wing Quick Release is sold separately.

WING WRIST STRAP (OPTIONAL)

The Wrist Strap features a velcro closure with a soft neoprene inside layer. It connects to the Leash Line via a loop-to-loop connection, If you become overpowered or lose control let go of the wing and it will de-power on the leash line. The Wrist Strap is sold separately.

HARNESS LINE CONNECTION

A harness line can be attached around the handle mounts or tube for customised rider preference.

REINFORCED LEADING EDGE AND STRUT

The Leading Edge and Struts are reinforced in high stress areas to ensure the kite canopy remains in shape and performs at its best.

ANTI-FLAP RIGID BATTENS

Rigid Battens strategically positioned along the Trailing Edge improve canopy tension and reduce flutter - enhancing performance, feedback to the rider and reducing canopy material wear.

REINFORCED TRAILING EDGE

Trailing Edge reinforcement with an internal lightweight Dyneema line reduces canopy wear and helps to maintain optimum Trailing Edge tension as designed.

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.
