Ozone Frenzy 07

Quite simply put: this kite rules. I've only flown with them once in 15 mph winds, and I want MORE! The 12m picked me up 5 feet of the deck with the kite almost at zenith, the 7.5m was a lot less scary in 15mph winds. I was having a blast enjoying the kites, never got on the board as I was enjoying static jumping the kite way to much. Unfourtunaltly I landed hard on a jump a sprained my ankle pretty bad. (My friend asked why I was smugling tennis balls in my socks...ouch). I want more!

The kite was great in the conditions flown too. I was not in the best place to fly as a there was a 60 ft cliff real close. Despite the turbulence the kite flew dead steady. It parked itself solidly at zenith and stayed there, no over flying, no bumpy rides. I love this kite...now is there a trick to heal a sprained ankle?....

I got to spend an afternoon with a 14m Frenzy, great kite, I was in maybe 8-10mph winds max, lots of power, really smooth on the depower, didn't have enough wind to really get any lift though, I know I was kissing the bottom end of the wind range, but the kite still flew pretty good. All in all a nice ride. I'd love to have had the 15mph winds to really test it out though.

Oh yeah, kite also flies fairly well right after you dump tonnes of seawater out of it, flying ok after 5min, by 15min you could barely tell it was drowned. Sorry bout that Eli.
