Mood: Light winds Summers are Fine with Big Kites!

Ozone is doing well here, my main Brand. We had a great winter riding and teaching on the foils. It was also great to get newcomers on the Flows just
lately for Kiteboaridng Beach Lessons.
I'll be on the Edges and Zephyrs this year,was on the Sports last year. Some guys got their C4 already, so hoping for a good year.
My Zephyr will be here any day... Edges coming some presold.
But true they make them as fast as they sell them.
There are some great updates on the Ozone Site too.
Can't wait to get riding on the 2010.
Ozone had that JIT Just in time Marketing... But with kites I find it's better not to have over supply. You never know what Kiters will want...
(Model) Hitting the mark is never perfect either, Preorders are not so bad for many. I carry stock on what I think will work best.

Not meant to be rude.... Ozone might be selling kites as fast as they are making them, but are they selling them in the US or Canada?

Sure always the Access Harness in for summer and winter especially since many get the harness for the flow and for snow.
And for info always had Accesses in most sizes and the wait times were usually 2 weeks when I ran out.

Just a note for all Ozone lovers. A Wind of Change now has the 2010 Ozone Frenzy FYX listed on the website. Knowing Kent, this means that he
actually has them IN STOCK!! The new Frenzy is an awesome kite, pick one up if you've got the money.

Sounds like he's going to carry Ozone. Though he doesn't have any of it on his site yet.

I was under the impression that Kent was fairly well stocked on Yakuzas.
For good or ill, eBay liquidators are glutted with recent Yaks (go figger).
I ordered a black Ozone flag (which has ostensibly been in their catalog for years) about 6-7 weeks back. The order turned to vapor and not of the
Peter Lynn variety. It probably took me 2-3 weeks to get a Flexifoil wind feather, so a wait was expected, but...
It would have been nice to have for a variety of reasons.... mostly to save my eyesight, but I won't be climbing a water tower with a high powered
rifle over it.
FWIW: EBay UK has a high cycle rate for a lot of brands of power kites.... not just Ozone. Some weeks there was a couple of pages of Flexifoil land
and water kites. Some are personal sales, some are clearance houses, and there was speculation on KC that some of it was Flexifoil clearing out some
older stock.

I got the below response from a store I exchanged emails with last week while looking for a 4m depower as they have the Access on their site and also
an alternative I'd be interested in. I told them I was concerend about the lag time from Ozone but this is how they responded. If interested, U2U me
and I'll send the store link as they aren't a member of this forum to the best of my knowledge.

Oi.... let's put your mind at ease then. You want to turn over most of your quiver to me.
Then there would be no more hand-wringing or teeth-gnashing over wait times and quiver reconfigurations.

Man, its the strangest thing :dunno: its like I have this crazy urge to just go and stick all my kites in a box and mail them to an indigo wolf.
Isn't that weird? I mean who ever saw a wolf fly? :wee: I don't think
that's even possible since they have no opposable thumbs, but yet still I have this strong urge. Weird
