WHO IS THE REFLEX FOR?

Anyone who wants to feel the thrill of kitesurfing with as little complication and as much progression as possible, with a product built tough enough for heavy use. 

RIDE WITH CONFIDENCE

Featuring Vortex three-strut shaping DNA and a highly tuned 16-point bridle system, the Reflex feels instinctively responsive and smooth.

Featuring our durable Teijin Triple Ripstop dacron airframe.

The Reflex offers a little softer and more playful all-terrain riding experience compared to the Vortex. A thicker material than Aluula (used on the Vortex airframe), Dacron is also naturally more resistant to abrasion when scuffed on the beach.

PERFORMANCE AND FEELING

• Fast and instinctive flying feel

• Easy jumping and rewarding float performance

• Tight turning radius makes kite loops easy to learn and throw without fear. No surprises!
• Light to medium bar pressure
• Everything feels beautifully balanced so you can enjoy ripping around at speed with ease

No matter which materials we choose for their specific performance benefits, when you have an Ozone product in your hands, you will always have the advantage of excellent aerodynamic flying characteristics.

The Reflex offers a mix of strength, performance and light weight flying characteristics to suit the riding style and demands of most modern kiteboarders.

HIGH-PERFORMANCE WITH EVERYDAY ACCESSIBILITY

The Reflex is heavily based on the Vortex design with a few key differences:

REFLEX

SHAPE AND MATERIALS

• 3 strut dacron airframe – more hard wearing and with a less demanding ride feel. Offers more accessibility than the Vortex.
• Less aspect ratio offers more low end power. The Reflex is still considered a relatively high-aspect design.

ACCESSIBILITY AND HANDLING

• Softer dacron airframe also allows for more material twist under load, which means the Reflex turns more tightly through a loop with less power.

IDEAL RIDER:

Beginner to advanced

• Capable of feeding the addiction of any kitesurfer, however long or limited their experience. 
• Mixes high performance power and handling with comfort and accessibility. Designed to make big-air twin-tip riding progression feel natural and fun.Although the primary design focus was twin-tip performance, the Reflex’s tighter turns and softer feel also make it an excellent cross-discipline kite for wave and foil sessions.

FEATURES

Teijin Triple Ripstop Dacron Airframe

Teijin is the world's leading supplier of technical performance materials for marine sports, setting the benchmark in quality with proven superiority in dynamic strength and durability.

The technical triple rip-stop dacron is incredibly strong and reliable. It's used in areas requiring rigidity and stability, the leading edge, struts, wingtips and reinforcement areas.

Teijin TechnoForce Triple Ripstop Canopy

Teijin is the world's leading supplier of technical performance materials for marine sports, setting the benchmark in quality with proven superiority in dynamic strength and durability.

The triple rip-stop canopy material has an advanced coating to increase strength, rigidity and durability while improving feedback to the rider for a more direct feeling.

Transverse Sail Shaping

The Leading Edge features Transverse Sail Shaping creating a cleaner and tighter surface on the most important area of the aerofoil. The result is less turbulent airflow and longer skin adhesion, which positively affects the lift to drag ratio increasing overall performance.

4-line Pulley-less System

NO pulleys, NO problems. We design all our inflatable kites without pulleys, to inherit the unique Ozone feeling and performance across our range.

Internal Reinforcements

What's on the inside counts too — we use top of the line materials and strategic internal reinforcements for increased strength and durability.

Direct Connect Struts

Our Direct Connect construction method improves load distribution between the Leading Edge, Struts and Canopy. Struts are 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.

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.

Reinforced Leading Edge and Struts

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

Tuned bridle geometry

We work extensively during our R&D process to develop the size range to feel in tune with each other. Every kite has a unique bridle layout, individually tested and fine-tuned to maximize the feeling and performance.

Anti-Flap Battens

A combination of soft and rigid battens strategically positioned along the trailing edge provide canopy support and reduce flutter, enhancing kite feedback to the rider and also reducing canopy material wear.
